I've attached a video that I followed and if you follow it step by step it works great. Before you order it it's a good thing to check the connector on the back of your IDrive screen (10 minute job just have to remove air condition vents and 2 screws) as the CIC is 4 pin however on a lot of the 2012 models they have the 6 pin NBT connector ( mine did) this is also good practice for when you get the box and you know what you're doing. Took 12 days to arrive to me in UK and £150 is a good price for what you get. Difficulty to fit is medium as it's quite fiddly but all you need is some torque screws and patience, a beer will help too haha. You maintain original IDrive but have the option to switch over to CarPlay (google maps, Spotify, phone calls etc), all controlled by original idrive controller and the steering wheel controls will work on the CarPlay feature (You don't get this on original IDrive) Works flawlessly and looks great too even on original screen. Had a look around and found the best option was one of these CarPlay boxes I have the most basic I drive in my 2012 sport (CIC). Had the same question myself the other day. Will upgrading to the ENTRYNAV give me Bluetooth music?īasically, I just want navigation and Bluetooth music, whilst still using s proper idrive unit, rather than some dodgy aftermarket thing Will the nav work? Or do I need another/different antenna for that to work? And are there aftermarkets that can be used?Ĥ. Can I just change the controller and the CD part, or must I change the screen to - or is it best to change the screen, controller, CD part with the buttons and whatnot on?ģ.

Does anyone know what the part number or part numbers I'm looking for is for this?Ģ.

I'm interested in retrofitting it in and looking for advice.ġ. My current idrive system doesn't have Bluetooth for music, only phone, it doesn't have nav, or any of that fancy cool stuff. So, I have a 2012 116i Sport (3dr) and it's all basic trim.
