Luxin - BMW Upgrade Guide

Does your BMW still have the old screen menu?

Most BMW owners don't realise their existing screen can run full wireless CarPlay and Android Auto - no new car, no screen replacement, no cables.

By Luxin Team  -  June 2026

That old iDrive menu has been in your BMW since the factory. It works - but it was built before wireless CarPlay and Android Auto existed. The screen is there, the hardware is there. You're just one small module away from transforming it completely.

What the upgrade actually looks like

One small module connects between your head unit and screen. Your factory display goes from the old BMW menu to full wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto - instantly, cleanly, permanently.

How it works

01

Remove the existing connectors

Remove the existing power and video connectors from the BMW head unit and connect them to our provided harness. Takes under 5 minutes.

02

Connect the Luxin module

Connect the Luxin module in between - like a sandwich between the head unit and the screen. Everything you need is included.

03

Connect wirelessly forever

Your phone connects automatically every time you start the car. No cables, no holders, no compromise.

What you get

Wireless CarPlay & Android Auto

Full integration on your factory screen with screen mirroring. Watch content, videos or movies while driving using AirPlay or AutoLink - both supported by the module.

60-minute install

Enjoy a simple straightforward installation without any coding, cutting wires, rewiring original parts or anything - just like putting your phone to charge. No permanent modifications are done during install.

Factory screen kept

Your original BMW display - no matter smaller or bigger, the module supports both. No cheap aftermarket screens or head unit changes - everything stays in your current setup.

All BMW functions intact

Original iDrive and all its features, head-up display, audio and microphone, parking sensors and cameras - everything remaining as is. Switch to original system any time by holding the menu button for 2 seconds.
