Apple CarPlay & Android Auto Retrofit
Add wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto to your BMW with our professional retrofit solutions. We offer two options depending on your vehicle and preferences.
The MMI Box connects to your existing iDrive screen, keeping the original OEM appearance while adding CarPlay/Android Auto functionality. Control is via the iDrive controller.
The Aftermarket Screen replaces your original display with a larger 10.25" touchscreen. This Linux-based unit runs CarPlay and Android Auto only - it is not a standalone Android tablet. Touch control works exclusively within CarPlay/Android Auto.
All options include professional fitting and full system integration.
