I also need this. I didn't think it was possible?

EDIT: I just checked my VIM on connected drive and it is not available for my 2017.

Sorry for the confusion caused. I just saw this option in the connected drive shop and was thinking it would automatically be available for my car. I did not try to book it because I was not interested in having car play. When I tried to book it this morning it gave me the same message: Can not bee booked for your car.
