How to Upgrade Your F30 BMW Screen + Apple CarPlay & Android Auto

8.8” Display for F30 & F32 bit.ly/2HcSjFQ
(In the video we used an OEM display from a scrapyard)
F30 BUILD kit.co/JUSTINBUICE/f30-build
In this video we upgraded the tiny 6.5” “peasant display” to the larger 8.8” display. In my opinion, this is the screen that the 340i should have come with.
We also installed the BimmerTech Multi Media Interface (MMI Prime) which allows you to use both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as well as install a backup camera if your car didn’t come with one.
Huge thanks to Bryan at Kies Motorsports for the parts and installation!

How many of these have you fitted and where did you purchase this from video made it look easier than I thought it would be?
Had issues with my idrive not working at moment going to replace maybe I'd be entering of doing this install at same time.
can you do this if you have the big screen from factory but no carplay?
@@user-ev3pj1tg1p kiesmotorsports.com provided both the screen and the multimedia interface module for the video. The multimedia interface has a switch so you can toggle between Apple CarPlay/ Android Auto and the factory iDrive software.
@@jay7k Yes, the screen and multi media interface (MMI) are sold separate anyway, so you'd just need the MMI if you just want to add CarPlay
Where did you buy the screen? And is it possible to buy the screen and use it just as i use the original screen i have now, without buying the MMI CarPlay?
Awesome videos! Love how you do upgrades and show the normal person how these things can be done. I really want to upgrade my sound later down the road. I have a e90 bmw and learned a lot from your channel. Good job 👍
Great upgrade bro. I would definitely do that too if I had an f30. It’s so worth it.
My MK5 Golf now has a orginal VW Screen in it that's basically on par with the basic MK7 touch screen. RCD330+, it's just great, was very cheap and quite easy to install.
Honestly i expected you to do most of these mods and im happy that you did. Great content
Lets be honest, none of us actually owns a BMW but still we all watch this
I do
Lol
e36 lol
You‘re wrong
E70
Dude, when I saw the video thumbnail I was excited to see if you had found a good CarPlay upgrade for the E90! Then I remembered you sold the E90 and I got a little bit sad. I also live in Michigan and I bought my E92 just a bit earlier than when you started to post your E90 videos and I love them! I still have my car and I think about your old E90 every now and then when I’m in my car. I’ll probably hold on to mine as long as I possibly can...
WOW, guys, reallly easy-understandable and visual explanation on the steps. Great video!
Been waiting for this vid since you bought the car. Awesome dude!!!
Saw another Keys video a while back where he had to pull the glove box to mount the MMI in an f30. Nice that wasn't needed here. Pretty expensive and tedious for Carplay, but enticing to not have to disassemble the passenger-side dash. Great vid.
its 2 screws you don't have to take the glove box out just the panel underneath that you would remove to replace the filter ( I have mounted an amp there)
"breites display" means wide display - for those curious
I followed you from such a long time🙈🙈
Now you're back in the game
You've come a long way Justin, great content!
Great editing! It’s always good when you come to town!
Great video!
I'm suprised bmw hasn't tried taking you down or suing like an asshole. You just know they hate when someone smart shows us how to save money from their stealership. Preciate you bryan💪🏾
@@Xylti BMW is not Tesla, At least Indy shops and small garages can work on BMWs
Kies! Is there a kit to upgrade exhausting larger screen F30 iDrive systems to have Android Auto and Apple Carplay??
Tried swapping my 2013 f30 screen to a screen from a 2017 f30 but it doesn’t go on. Does it need coding before it can go on? My f30 doesn’t have navigation and the 2017 had navigation.
Display Variante - my favorite coding term !
That really looks good Justin 👍
What a sick upgrade!
This is an incredible upgrade to your car looks crazy good! 👌🏻
I’m gonna put this in my 320i. This is a very cool upgrade.
Did you do it? How is it?
This is a clean upgrade 👌🏼
Great editing! excellent Job Guys ;D
Good collab guys!
Awesome video, I used this today to replace the 6.5" screen of my 4 series for a 8.8" touch version and it was very helpful. Especially the tip to pull the unit out for some more slack on the cable was very good. I expected it wouldn't be necessary but you were absolutely right. ;-)
Where did you find the 8 in screen could you send the link please
Bro did you also use that coding program? Or its just plug & play
@@Sarper777 yes, I used Bimmercode (app) with a bluetooth OBD2 adapter. You need to code in the correct screensize and in my case also the touch functionality.
Just bought a 2016 328i loving it so far, I need to add this and comfort access 😂
Fantastic!! Looks very fancy!🔥👌
Thank you for the video! This is the proof I needed that you could use the non touch 8.8 inch screen with the entry head unit, obviously coding the car to use the bigger screen.
4:23 thank your this valuable piece of insight..
Just ordered the MMI for my F30, not having android auto sucked. Can't wait to get it in!
How did it work out for you bro? Do you like it?
Cool. I should try this on my bimmer. Thanks for explanation.
So lucky man. Blessed
Great video Justin! Would suggest upgrading the iDrive controller also to give a more OEM look. I’ve heard a lot about these solutions but tend to stray more towards a full OEM Pro Nav retrofit including the head unit with OEM CarPlay
Hey what would be the actual difference between what Justin is installing and having the full OEM Pro retrofit including the OEM CarPlay head unit
@@RhinoMGTV when you swap in a different head unit (ie. going from ENTRYNAV to NBT EVO), some features like ConnectedDrive may not work (they are VIN-locked from what i heard)
by doing Bimmertech MMI+big screen retrofit, you keep the original head unit so you can still retain all of its functions, and not lose things like ConnectedDrive.
I am in the process of changing mine and it’s awesome to see how the process is so simple to do. Thanks for making video.
Great video! This is my favorite mod on my F30.
late reply but what year is your f30 and did it have the basic 6.5 non nav screen?
@@williamcooper4126 2015 with the 8.8” display.
Does the bmw connected app or the mybmw app still work after installing mmi prime
Thank you for this!! Much needed and appreciated!!
Omb,
People like to make life harder and more complicated!
To much electronics!!!
But thanks for the lessons they are priceless !!!
Nice! Much needed upgrade, man!
Perfect!, now only I need a car (BMW) 😅
Better be a new one. Once factory warranty expires trade/ sell it.
Bmws are like boats....
When you been out the bmw fam for a bit and come back to kies motor with long hair 2020 man
Getting a BMW first time and that's is a big issue..
..awsome video!!!
Thank u Bigtime
Justin regarding your thoughts about cost of the screen, I´m working as a product engineer in automotive and we are often making changes during development of car with cost saving of 1 cent because if you can save 1cent on many areas of car it could make big difference with huge amount of manufactured cars.
Damn thats great. Does this also work for the F20/F21?
You did it!! Looks great dude!
Thank you!
Fantastic work!
Another interior mod for you, maybe wrap that interior silver trim going along the front bit of the dash, with vinyl carbon. 👍
cool, looks like a nice upgrade you can do on an F30!
*checks prices
oh......
Check out Andream MMI. Same hardware. Half the price. There are other companies out there doing the same thing without the insane markups
Hey cheap boy, buy a Honda if it is too expensive yaa. (You have to say it in a German accent)
u can do it in anny modern BMW , i updated my E90 to a android unit works the same + now i have backup camera :) and 64 gb +128 in pendrive in storage for videoclips & music
@@davey6024 cheap .... everything is over price
@@davey6024 What Kies sells is the same as the Andream. Same model no. If you think Kies made it then you are wrong.
Awesome video, a real gem.
Looks fantastic 😍
Hi guys,
are there any special things you need to do when you upgrade from the small screen to an original X5 10,25" ?
I tried it with only changing the screen but I if I choose "wide screen" when coding, the display stays black. Maybe you could help me. Greets from Germany :)
"The 6.5' peasant display" 😂😂
Back when screens were useful without being distracting though. The bigger the screen the less you will concentrate on where your peepers should be looking as in out of the front window. No wonder there are so many car crashes as people are too busy fiddling with multimedia displays.
@@DEVILTAZ35 ahhh maybe! I mean there is always the option to turn the screen off regardless of the size but beside navigation the new mmi units could arguably be a bit much
@@DEVILTAZ35 some old guy probably still rocking his manual stick
@@hc8714 nahhhh just common sense
Back for more Justin Buice content!!!
“Here I am send me”. THATS AN AMAZING TAT.
So installing the display variante is what added car play?
that carplay extends to each side and looks way better than oem 🙃
If you wanted to extend the OEM one we have a solution for that drop us a message @definedcoding on Instagram
@@kyle.bratton yo kyle what’s up bro 😂
@@samsam_f87 what's up bro fancy seeing you here I usually comment off my other account but was being lazy haha!
awesome video, just gained a new subscriber! 👏
This looks really good
Great video. Very articulate and easy to follow. I may have missed something but where does the actual MMI go? You left it hanging in the center to test then never said where it actually lives.
Did we ever get an answer to where it lives?
@@japzero961 idk but I would guess right under the grey box
Its a nice upgrade.. but I need to do wheels first... then exhaust... then carbon aero xD
great video. One question, have you being able to enable the next/previous buttons on the steering wheel?
Well done… awesome work
Please add NBT EVO 6 upgrade too it’s makes it so futuristic maybe another video idea 😬😬
So well done, where & what was that coding device from. I load an APP on my android? Thats it?
Great Job Guys👌I’ll be upgrading my Screen next month! Thx.
Looks 10 times more better bro!!!👍
I agree! The car should have come like this
Enjoyed the video!
Just wondering how much this has affected your MPG?
So what happens when you take the car to the dealership to be serviced? They go into the unit to Measure the oil and other maintenance related things.
Great demo bro!
Thanks!
Great video! Now all I need is a BMW F30 😄
Would 100% recommend the steering wheel upgrade to anyone . I've done it on my 2 series and it feels better and massively enhances the aesthetic of the interior.
how much does it cost?
@@michaelronan7769 you can get the wheel for anywhere between £150-£200 on eBay, and the airbag (which is usually separate) for between £60-80.
Dont upgrade the steering wheel and the screen they will get stolen.
@@marsbelediyebaskani5193 maybe if u live in an absolute shit hole, i havent heard of people stealing car interior parts since like 2012
I spotted some Lord Quas 👍
Some of the best samples I’ve heard
Bruv you need to get that m sport bumper conversion kit. Completely transforms the front and rear of the car
Super, i found my next investment for my f31 2014, 318d
Does it work on a e90 with no navigation
Hows the quality of the backup camera after adding MMI and upgrading to the 8.8 inch screen? It’s pretty clear on the 6.5, but curious to see if it’s still the same or better/worse.
It’s the same as the camera didn’t didn’t change. Just the display
i wear same clothes too bro dope vids i started watching here and im gonna watch all the vids love how you work and pay attention to detail .... goals!
Great video, thanks for sharing
Cool upgrades!! I have a couple of questions, hope you'll reply!
1) Does the OEM microphone work with the MMI? Or does it have an independent mic?
2) Which is the built year of the car? Does it have a NBT or a CIC? Does this work also on CIC/CID head units?
Thanks guys!
its a f30 so it means its a 2012/2013 hope this helps mate
@@legendarygamekiller236 Dont know about him but I have a 2013 as well, good to know it would work thanks
Neither the Cic nor the nbt have the capabilities for Apple Carplay. You need to upgrade your Head Unit to either a NBT Evo the least to get access to Carplay.
@@legendarygamekiller236 its a 2016… 340i
Is there anyone or any garage like keys motorsports in london?
I got all excited and went online to buy this thing right way for 2014 bmw 328i came out with CIC. Long story short I have placed the order and they have shipped my fancy cup holder phone holder + Qi charger for $9.99. Needless to say I am completely satisfied and 5/7 would recommend to anyone looking into buying this upgrade without selling your kidney
i have them same car did you end up getting a bigger screen with carplay?
I know, when I saw the price I was shook😅but it’s worth it if you plan on keeping your car for a while and u can also sell it if you ever sell your car and get some money back
I bought a 2018 330e with 20k miles on it instead
Much was the screen
@@markoneill8188 i just got mine a few weeks ago and it was a little over 1.8K for the screen and MMI not to mention the coding session and coding cable😔
Amazing Video... So my 3 Series has a basic system, will all this work on it..? Can I, in anyway, upgrade the speakers..? Also can I add a reverse camera with my existing reverse parking sensors..?
How’s the bootmod3 working out? Anxious for that follow up vid!
It’s incredible. If someone were prioritizing modifications, I’d say that and a good set of tires would be the first two things to do
@@justinbuice thanks for the advice! Just got a 2017 330i last month and I’m wishing I went for the 340. Highly considering going stage 1 just a tiny bit concerned about the warranty. Your content is great! Keep it coming 💪🏽
When are you gonna get a PO box so we can send you stuff?
When he laid down the micro cloths... I knew everything was going to be peach perfect.
I already have an MMI to Lightning cord. Do I require the MMI to 3.5 microphone cord as well? Thanks for the awesome and straight forward video.
Great video as always Justin but the upgrade is kinda pricey almost 2k lol. I rather put that in performance, I just order from Avin the 10.5inxh screen and almost everything included for $890 but they’re having a sale so I got it for $555.
Agreed
I got the big screen from factory, doing this would stress me out, I'd feel like so many things could go wrong
Did the dealer install for you?
@@jec3476 no, buy the car with the big screen opposed to replacing it yourself is what I was referring to.
Nice DIY video, I’m in the process of installing the mmi in my f30. I wanted to ask what’s the obd2 adapter used to code the screen. Thanks
Nice video! I'm looking to upgrade my screen and get car play on my 2016 340i. What was that device you plugged into the obd2 port and where can I get one?
nice
Can I use that oem big screen on my bmw f30 328i 2013 will it work fine ?
It should be plug and play but you will still need to code the new resolution
Would you ever consider getting an ASD module and showing how it's installed? About to get a 440 and doubt it'll have one since it's a 2019 and definitely would have to install one. I'm too cheap to do exhaust mods lmao
Amazing vid. Do you know if it is possible to put the 2020 X6 super cozy headrest to 2020 X3 seat?
Does this integrate with cars equipped with heads-up display? Been thinking about doing this for a while but not sure if it would work with HUD
Won.t. Work
@@Ajdjdncjekskf Why?
@@jouldalk I know these, they don’t. They can communicate with the HUD.
@@Ajdjdncjekskf OK. So basically I would lose hud if I do this mode, right?
@@jouldalk OEM hud keeps working. But route instructions coming from apple carplay itself won’t show on HUD. If any other questions ask www.bimmersupplies.nl , theyy will help 🙂.
great video!
since i have an android phone i've been using a bluetooth adapter that connects to my phone (bluetooth) and my F30 car (auxiliary input). would love to do this upgrade but it's just too expensive, even to DIY. parts alone are $650+
easily a weeks work at ANY place even mcdonalds .
Hi guys, thank you for the video. I have a question, is it necessary to desconect the battery ?
Damn!!! It’s so much bigger lol great mod.
Do you need the MMI unit if you just want the bigger screen? I have an Android and hate Android auto, I have it in my other vehicles. I just want a bigger screen.
The OEM screens are interchangeable but you still need to code them to the new resolution
@@justinbuice thanks. I appreciate your content. Everything I never knew I needed.
Would this work in my 15' F22 as well?
???????????
Hey, is the coding the same when going from an 8 to 10inch screen?
