In my Banana Yellow Space Shuttle.
Another surprisingly capable CarPlay unit fitted to an idrive-less E89…again quite good audio..this one boots up very quickly…great screen and very responsive… :thumbsup:

Before the cable police arrive..yes the cables could be better routed..we’ll visit that in the spring..getting a better usb charger and right angled audio connector.. :poke: :poke: :poke:

Whilst there fitted a boot spoiler .. :thumbsup:

Now cooking the Sunday tea.. :tumbleweed: 🤣

Can you add an idrive controller or is it only operable from your iPhone?

That one is touch screen only ..of course you don’t access it from your phone..that’s the issue ..no integration with the car

My aux cable is in the arm rest. Is that an issue here? That's what I was most worried about.

Why does that worry you ?..

I assume you mean aud socket ?
 
Only because it's nowhere near the console, and I don't want wires coming from the console across the middle of the car.

I mean the aux 3mm port and the cigarette lighter.

If you’re happy taking some trim out it’s easy enough to route it through the centre console where the radio and HVAC are and under the armrest ..

Cherry M did that on his..I’m about to do that for a Z4 Scotland FB guy
 
That looks good (obs once the wires are sorted).

Th reflectivity of the screen would do my head in tho - maybe you can use an ipad screen protector (matt finish) & just trim to size?
