Prerequisites

To ensure a seamless installation of Apple CarPlay in your BMW, please make sure you meet the following requirements:

• A Windows laptop running at least Windows 8.
• A BMW OBD2 ENET Cable is required to establish a connection between your vehicle and the laptop during the installation. These are inexpensive and can be purchased HERE.
• A stable wireless internet connection to enable smooth communication between your laptop and our servers.
• Compatible iDrive Version: Your iDrive should be equipped with the NBTevo_N or a later version of the iDrive system to ensure compatibility with the fullscreen version of Apple CarPlay. Versions prior to this will only support half/split screen. We offer a separate service to update to the latest software version HERE if required.
• To check your version, go to "Navigation" >  "Map" > Press the Options button > Select "Navigation settings" > Navigate down to "Position and Version" > Select "Version Information". If your firmware starts with the letter N or any following letter after e.g. NBTevo_X then your version is compatible.
• A WiFi antenna installed in the car. Vehicles with the 'Telephony with wireless charging (6NW)' or 'WLAN HotSpot (6WD)' options will already have this. You can type your VIN in to a BMW VIN decoder to check this yourself. Feel free to reach out to us if you need this confirming prior to ordering though. 
• We offer genuine OEM WiFi antennas which can be purchased HERE and easily retrofitted for remote activations if required. 

Please ensure that all of the above requirements are met before proceeding with the installation of Apple CarPlay. Meeting these prerequisites will guarantee a successful and hassle-free installation experience, enabling you to enjoy the full range of features that Apple CarPlay has to offer. 

Install Procedure

• Submit the order and include your vehicle VIN in the order notes. Orders with no VIN will be delayed as we require this to setup the activation files for the car. 
• We will review your vehicle's compatibility and send out installation instructions via email for remote appointments, usually within the hour during UK business hours.
• For physical appointments we will be in touch to arrange a mutually convenient time and place for the installation. 

Please be aware that once the activation email has been sent or appointment arranged refunds are not available with this product, as the activation files are bound to the vehicles VIN at this stage.
