How does it work?
While the unit (CarPlay MMI Kit) is inactive, the original video signal is passed unchanged and your car works as before.
After activating the CarPlay MMI Kit, the CarPlay MMI Kit video signal is shown on the display instead.
When you reverse the car while using the CarPlay system, the system will automatically switch to the camera without manual operation. You can easily switch system back and forth between the unit and your original head unit.
(TIPS: Press and hold the “Menu” key to switch the system)

Shipping: less than 7 days- GREAT
Assembly: plenty of YouTube videos to walk you through how to disassemble and reassemble your dashboard...so that part was OK
Instructions: here is where I struggled...it wasn't as straight forward and easy to follow as some pertinent steps were left out and areas needing explanation weren't clear. I will say this, before you reassemble your dashboard, make sure everything is working-word to the wise.
Unit: works great. My camera works, my Bluetooth audio works, it connects to CarPlay seamlessly. I prefer to use my Android phone but my system works better with my Apple Carplay.
I can confirm what the other reviews touchsd on with the audio, I wish it played from the unit and not the aux. I played around with the audio settings until I found a prefernce I could live with. But for what it's worth, you get a bang for your buck!
At a fraction of the cost to most competitive units on the market, I would highly recommend this product.
Installation wasn't too bad, just follow online resources. The trickiest part of the install was getting the idrive to work. I ended up not needing to use the extra cable. Just kept the idrive plugs intact, and joined the A/B thingy at the other end.
The interface works really smooth. I've only had one instance where carplay didn't load up properly. Just had to reset the software.
Was very skeptical at first, but after installation it has been working perfectly! Reverse camera as well has been great..
Great unit and looks great in my 2012 BMW 328i. I even got the camera installed as well and it looks great. Just like it would be from the factory. Highly recommend this product!!
Kit came with everything needed for the install and took about an hour from start to finish. The hardest part was finding a space to store the CarPlay device as I had no space behind the factory head unit to store the device or excess harness. There are plenty of instructional videos out there to help with finding a location. The second hardest thing, having a CIC unit, was to find out which configuration worked for my idrive system. Again; the three method wiring videos provided in the install section proved useful. Great product so far and cheaper than what others were advertising this unit for. I just wish there was a way to not use the aux cable and have the device stream sound directly to my car, but not a deal breaker, just a personal preference. I would recommend it to family and friends alike.
