GBBimmerTech gave me fantastic service BimmerTech gave me great service. I set out to make my car new again. I’ve had the CarPlay MMI Prime installed and am happy with the aftermarket functionality. It does take some getting used to the controls. That said I really enjoy essentially having my iPhone functionality in my car. What a terrific upgrade! Thanks to the customer support team who helped me every step of the way.

GBNeed Carplay in an older BMW? YES!!! This is it! I watched a few videos prior to purchase, as MMI Prime was very well reviewed and the product turns the dull old i-Drive into a modern CarPlay machine. I purchased the MMI Prime from the website, and it shipped and arrived very quickly. It took me a couple of hours to install, as I also installed a rear camera that attached to the MMI Prime (from BimmerTech). The provided instructions were clear, concise and easy to follow. Every car probably has unique fitment issues as they are all different, my F10 only differed slightly from the instructions, but generally speaking there is plenty of room to secure the unit behind the dash. The cables supplied had sufficient length and was never an issue. The cable connecters were spot on perfect and there are no special wire joints needed. Truly plug and play! Once the unit was installed, it started working immediately and was able to pair my phone on the first try. The i-Drive controller navigation works better than I expected, and the overall the experience makes it a joy to use. The MMI Prime has plenty of settings to tweak it to your own liking (like EQ) and are easy to find and understand. So far everything is working as expected. I'm super happy to have made this purchase and would highly recommend this to anyone trying to add CarPlay in an older BMW.

GBBimmerTech Apple Car Play upgrade Was able to get Apple Car Play in my 2106 BMW 740I.. I am happy with the car play. I like the ease of the navigation function when driving in cities. Car Play also brings familiar I phone apps to my BMW screen. It is Also easy to switch back to BMW maps etc using the I drive system. The Bimmer Tech upgrade installation process was very efficient . The instruction for the online connection to the tech was easy to follow and worked very well.

GBThis review is overdue This review is overdue, but I needed to test the product for a while first! When I first contacted Bimmertech to upgrade my BMW 3 Series E93 convertible, I spoke with Jorge. He was fantastic to work with, and he comforted me before my purchase and later at the shop, ensuring that my car would be in good hands while I waited at a hotel nearby, which he also recommended. My car was retrofitted with Speakers (all), Amp, CarPlay MMI PRO and backup camera, and a code, all purchased with Bimmertech and installed on the same day. It is a two-hour drive, and I dropped off my car a day before. I made another appointment to return to Bimmertech a week after the installation because the HDMI cable was not exposed for me to plug in the Roku for passenger viewing. After minor clarification, Jorge had the technician do this little fix. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, and even my little Yorkies waited with me at the shop while the techs exposed the cable. It was a well-worth two-hour drive, and enjoyed Orlando. The appearance of the interior of my car has not changed visually, but the sound has improved exponentially! It is good that Bimmertech customized the equipment to the acoustics of my car, and it is a pleasant experience to enjoy good tunes at its optimal volume and sound level without distortions. Jorge asked my permission to post my car installation on YouTube. It is neat to see her there. Thank you Jorge!

GB2019 BMW X3 Apple Carplay install My 2019 BMW X3 came without access to Apple Carplay. I purchased the antenna, OBD connector, and coding session from Bimmer-Tech. The installation went perfect and works just as advertised. The videos provided gave me all the information needed. My wife is thrilled with it! I’m completely satisfied. You saved me a car trade. 🤣🤣
