Wireless/Wired Apple Carplay Unit plug n play CIC
Hi All, I'm selling an apple car play unit. This is plugs n play into the car and uses AUX in and external mic to operate. Steering wheel controls will work to skip tracks and iDrive will work to operate Apple Carplay. I routed the external mic to the same area where the factory mic is and hide the module behind the glovebox. More info: -Kremersino Wireless Carplay Unit (paid $350shipped for it) -Installation places it in-line of the LVDS cable (between CIC and screen) and iDrive controller harness in-line as well. -Hold the Menu button to switch between the Unit and Factory Navigation. -Hold the center knob down to activate Siri -Plugs into 3.5mm AUX in, Just set a preset to AUX and you are good to go -Steering wheel controls work for skipping tracks -External mic can be mounted where the OE mic is near the maplight panel. -Supposedly has Android Auto too but I have not verified since I don't have an Android phone to test when it was installed.

It's pretty straight forward.
On the back of the CIC unit: Unplug the LVDS cable from the back of the CIC unit, connect it to the module The unpluged cable from the car, plug that into the module On the idrive controller, unplug the harness and plug the harness to the module and plug module harness inline with the idrive controller. AUX 3.5mm is routed to the center console, and the cable with the USB port if you want wired and updates can be routed to wherever you want, I left mine in the glovebox using the fusebox cover area. The external mic, I routed up the passenger A pillar to the maplight panel where the factory mic is. The panel can hold a mic for both LHD and RHD so I just moved the factory mic over to the passenger side and placed the external mic over there. Operation: Set a preset on the CIC presets to select AUX Hold the Menu button on the idrive controller to switch over the Apple Carplay I think its either hold down the idrive controller or option button to enable Siri. Steering wheel skip tracks buttons work but unfortunately the CIC skip tracks for some reason. It's amazing to see a super widescreen Google maps on the CIC screen
