[@JuneBugTW]

[@bmh3026]

300

[@rajithmr2159]

[@gurinderpalsingh7705]

Is this still working in 2023? If so how much it costs?

[@melumzimatsaku5961]

how did you connect the iphone to show on screen, i have the same car but my iphone doesn’t show there on screen

[@nizarelhag9347]

nice work, just bit confused about 21 century bit 😵

[@tommead3013]

I have this car, same year. How much would this cost?

[@MrStevenvdGoot]

I have an BMW f20 (2012) without Bluetooth combox, So I cannot connect my phone, do you think it will work? Or do you need bluetooth from the combox in the car?

[@heinrichheidestein1013]

I need to know too

[@000Vixens000]

use bluetooth dongle in the car center armrest and connect it to your phone then what ever you do via speech goes through the dongle into your car for speech etc i use it for alexa so maybe its kinda the same thing

[@Connor5511]

Hi idk if you sorted this or not but I also have no combox but wish to add CarPlay. You can see at 1:08 this car has no navigation option meaning they probably don’t have a combox either

[@skrtskrttah8443]

i’ve got a 2014 f20. can I do this?

[@mirdita9702]

Of course but you can found a better screen now in 2020

[@cassimahmed5459]

If you have Waze on your phone does it work on the screen

[@jackhone8702]

how much would it cost for this and upgrade to the larger screen

[@bmh3026]

Better to get an android cost about 350 for 10” touchscreen including fitting

[@JayGurriahPhotographerJGTubing]

I have a 11plate 1 series no nav only Bluetooth. do you think I could install CarPlay on it and how much would it cost because I want wireless CarPlay

[@christaylor1753]

How do I get this ?

[@c19danyelle]

Injust buy a bmw 2012 and i have a iPhone 7 plus i can connect ? Or the screen has to be Android ?

[@lukebarber4904]

Can you use the steering wheel controls

[@ruhulu4164]

How do you input into the apps? Can you use the controller to add a destination or do you need to use your phone?

[@AdvancedInCarTechnologies]

You use the existing iDrive Controls

[@mathewmike6790]

[@jbrickwork]

[@dqn015]

[@bmh3026]

Bluetooth

[@mbakihubona8453]

how much is the system? i want it asap.

[@AdvancedInCarTechnologies]

Approx £899 for this setup!

[@icwienergaming]

@@AdvancedInCarTechnologies i can get a full 1080p display with wireless CarPlay for like 300€.. You’re prices are ripoffs

[@AdvancedInCarTechnologies]

Not at all. You’re making an unfair comparison with no factual evidence. You’re referring to a totally separate product that is not integrated which isn’t a fair comparison. We’re offering a system that fully installs to a BMW to give you factory style CarPlay. We have to take it apart, install, refit, offer warranty etc. The process takes about 3hrs. We’re not the cheapest out there which we are very transparent on but we are good at what we do and the equipment we supply is fully supported. From the margin we make we have to pay for things like Wages, Mortgages, Bills, Taxes etc. If it’s out of your budget then that’s fine but please do not call a business a Rip-Off it can be very damaging.

[@Grandmasterjord]

@@AdvancedInCarTechnologies This is a very professional response. If I were in the UK I’d use you guys. Haha But here in the US I found a Bimmertech certified installer and my Bimmertech module should be coming in either this week or next. He quoted me about 2-3 hours to make sure it’s done correctly and said if there is any issues they will take care of all trouble shooting for me which gives me piece of mind. I paid $975 for the whole service. Do you guys also use Bimmertech?

[@VeryTeri]

@@icwienergaming 100% agreed. One quick look on aliexpress and you'll find countless 10 inch hi-res displays (complete with carplay) for only around 300-350. You can find an installer in your area who can do these retrofits in their sleep, willing to do it for 150-200. I suppose these guys could argue that the equipment they source, their professionalism, their process, etc. warrants the insane price hike but in actuality, I've surrendered my peace of mind to companies like that in the past only to get piss poor results, issues, etc. so like anything in life you never really get a guarantee lol. I'd personally go elsewhere and save an arm and a leg.

[@victorlupusor752]

Would this affect the insurance in any way?

[@reza55079]

Probably. But how do u have insurance for an 11 year old car

[@lukesalvidge118]

Ofc not

[@chrisforth3791]

I have a 2014 model 1 series that I believe is a CIC system, no built-in navigation or Bluetooth audio. Would this be compatible with my car and what prices for equipment and fitment? Cheers

[@BTolom]

Yes your have CIC. I recommend you, Change of Display( HeadUnit) to Carplay HeadUnit is not expensive..mine cost 300€ and it is easy to install.

[@NayLVP]

@@BTolom where from?

[@crivatz]

Is this true Apple Carplay? Or a copy version?

[@AdvancedInCarTechnologies]

It’s an aftermarket system that is offering True Apple Carplay

[@marcopachetti5605]

How i can do it in italy?

[@AdvancedInCarTechnologies]

You’d need to find an installer in Italy :)

[@MR-zl6vs]

Scam for 995 you can install a lot better screen for 500 this is a joke
