What do I need? Upgrade screen and add CarPlay
Hello!
What I have: F48 December 2018 X1 with navigation and the 6 inch screen. I went to Bavarian Coding and it's confirmed my headunit does not have the port for the WiFi antenna so I would need a headunit change. While I am at it I would like to upgrade to a bigger screen which I gather is 8.8 inch? What do I need? Any recommendations of where to look for these parts, and their part numbers? I will assume I buy used as from BMW will be £££££. Aside from HU and screen, do I need a new screen surround to fit into the dash? Also what about coding? Thanks! |

go to ebay for the new screen. you’ll need bimmercode or esys to code in the new screen.
HU_ENTRYNAV > 3000 HMI > DISPLAY_SIZE_RESOLUTION = 8.8_1280x480 HU_ENTRYNAV > 3001 EXBOX > DISPLAY_VARIANTE = breites_display realoem.com - enter in your vin and get the 8.8 listed that would’ve came fitted at factory. |

i can’t do anything about carplay. i know your HU needs to have a wlan port & the HU needs to be on a certain s/w version but there are folks on here that can help with just your vin & let you know if your current HU can support carplay or it needs to be replaced entirely.
chk out this thread - a cpl of those folks can help you to chk if your HU will work or not. https://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=2055859 |
