Thats the one

Is there a BMW trader on the forum that we can deal with rather than having to deal with main dealer all the time ?

replied to your pm , yes half way there , cubby is fitted and sorting out tablet with wireless charging

Will update this thread with pics in the next few weeks when all sorted

I have everything working but the tablet I'm using the Nexus 7 2013 is about 3mm to wide for the cubby , so looking for a narrower tablet that looks oem with no branding

Ive checked my sent box and its not there

dont know what happened to that

Ive got everything working with a bluetooth receiver plugged into the aux port underneath arm rest

I stream music to the OEM stereo wireless and use a small bluetooth thumb wheel to pause and change tracks

At least with the tablet I get use copilot GPS and all the android goodies , I'm using autosleeper app to turn the display off the tablet when the ignition is off

The tablet charges when I'm in the car and wakes up when ignition back on

Just need a contactless charging tablet with dimensions shorter than nexus 7 2013 edition
