Factory mic wiring into android head unit
Hi everyone,
I have a e93 M3 and I would like to take the wire from the stock stereo and solder it to a jack for use with my android unit. Can anyone tell me what wire this is on the back of the stock stereo? Or where I can find the end of the mics wire? Will what I'm doing even work? Has anyone done it? TIA |

Not sure if that will work. Not sure if there is a mic input jack for the android head unit. And if there is, why not just buy a cheap microphone rather than butchering the stock one?
I have an android unit in my car and I still take my calls thru original iDrive. My phone can pair to both devices at the same time - iDrive for calls, android head unit for media audio and Waze. |

. And if yours doesn't you can buy a different harness or if your good with electronics you can pop the back open of the android unit and there's two contacts you can solder too for a mic. The issue is I use my head unit with apple car play/android auto so it all gets overridden and sent there |

I think what you are looking for a is a mic splitter cable. They come with some carplay/android auto kits, but can be tricky to locate separately. You can cut the 3.5mm connector off and solder it to whatever you want.
As far as I know the microphone doesn't directly connect to the CIC/CCC head unit, but connects to the combox in the back. The design was simplified in later bmws, and the microphone directly connects to NBT/NBT Evo head units. |
