As the proud new owner of the trial screen I can attest that this works. I think it’s hard for the camera to actually capture how big the difference is in size between the new and old screen but it’s big
Thanks for the amazing explanation, just did it on my M3, can't say it was easy with the leather dash but thanks to your video I succeeded. Had to do the Feature Installer for full screen car play because the headunit is EVO_Q. If others have the leather dash, please note that you will need to trim the plastic completely on the edges down to the chrome part.
Well done Tommy. Been following your channel for quite some time now. Love the way you present and the quality of the content. Been looking for a while to perform an upgrade on my f82 but never had the balls or didn't think it was possible as most units are not compatible with my M4. If I do go ahead with it would be good to hit you up if you're free. Awesome work dude! All the way from UK.
Thanks Tommy for the guide. I would have been too nervous to start cutting into the dash of my 19 M4 CS but it worked great following your directions. I did this about a year ago at night in my driveway in under an hour. Used screen from a 2017 X5. One of the best mods you can do to a F8X
I've had bad experiences with ebay screens and just went with the one from bimmertech for my f80. No complaints so far. You don't gain a touch screen as their fitting is just a box in between the car and the OEM screen.
My 2020 M4 has a touch screen as standard, the only problem is the screen is so far away you have to lean forward to actually reach it. The newer G series cars have it much closer.
this video gave me the idea of trying to get a G30 10.25" screen in my F87 M2 the G30 screen doesn't have the silver bezel but also requires more modifications to fit. the screen itself is plug and play though. I just had to code the size and resolution. I had NBT EVO and the screen was NBT EVO so touch and everything worked out of the box I'm working on 3d printing a back cover and screw bracket as the screw prongs need to be extended and the back cover has about a 4" gap so far though the new screen is much brighter if I get everything working I'll post the cad files on the bmw forums for anyone who wants to print them as well

Keep up with those videos, I hope that somebody can explain me how to enable apple car play now but the rest is just perfect.
I have a 2014 BMW 428i. You stated that cars older then a 2015 would need a different type of screen. Would you happen to know the part number and other details to have that screen installed. Thank you and great video.
@@TommyLGarage no desire to upgrade to DI6? I saw a few guys switch to DI6- LITE, but with this retrofit, you can code the full version since you have the touch screen
Looks stunning!!! You should sale them already retrofitted for the fxx models. You have the template. Im sure there is a market! People are always looking for the easy way out for an upgrade such as myself. Say....800$ for the retrofitted unit, leaving a 200$ profit margin for yourself. Im sold and would be your first customer Tommy.🤔😀👍🏼
Trying to understand what's needed to do this to my 2015, non touch screen M3? Do I need just the 10" screen or do I need to get the full x drive system + coding to make this happen? Can't seem to find a clear answer. Thanks for any assistance looks like a great upgrade.
Great video, I'm coming from a 2015 F80 with the NBT ID4. If I swap it with a X5 F15 screen, what do I need to do to make sure it is touchscreen? I plan on adding the Andream MMI as well for the CarPlay
Video looks great and makes it look easy and doable, BUT, you almost gave me a heart attack watching the cf trim getting put back in place. Lol Thanks,.
This is a great video. It would also help if you could post a written DIY as well, and list the model and specs for the screen. Also, if your car is not equipped from factory for touch and is f3x model, does the OBD coding the way to activate it so that apple CarPlay can be purchased and used? Seems bmw offers CarPlay after initial sale but only if car shows compatibility. Thanks
Tommy L Garage thank you for the answer! I was thinking that once an upgrade is done, nobody will go back... Do you know if it works with id4 nbt? Since i got the Andream mmi apple CarPlay module, I have a tendency to touch the screen🤣
Good video mate very thorough I completely understand the need for this why would you want to upgrade the whole car just for an updated media experience. Having done a little research I understand my f30 ID4 would need a new display and processor is there any other hardware needed?
Great video, as always! Love your channel. I know this is just a screen upgrade, but with having to also upgrade the software have you noticed anything lost with vehicle data, like service intervals or maintenance data that you had before and doesn't transfer over?
Nope not at all. And software wasn’t updated. It was lost programming the new resolution. Think of it as plugging a bigger monitor to your old computer.
@@lasse_bwld you can only screen mirror if you have an old android phone because the new android phones don’t use the same technology to screen mirror like I can take an old Samsung that has Mass and stream that way directly to my car but that doesn’t work with Apple or any of the new android phones
What would the difference be for a 2014 320i xDrive that has already the 8.8" Screen? If any difference at all. Great video too by the way! very straight forwards.
@@TommyLGarage Would I be able to fit this screen in as a plug and play or would I have to do some other stuff during the installation as well? The 320i that I got already had the 8.8" screen installed from factory.
This is awesome! Pretty easy install as well. Just don't think 600 bucks is worth it for a few inchs. I would love to see a android touch screen come out one day. That's reasonable priced.
Hello TLG, the links to the screens are out of date. Could you provide a part number or what vehicles it cames with so we can do the search ourselves and for later years can reference to. Thanks! Looking forward to doing this mod thanks to you vid.
Hi Tommy , great video very detail oriented😊. i was wondering just wondering do you have screen link for my f30 2015. cos the link u uploaded is sold out🥺
Great video man! I have a 2016 328i with NBT Evo ID4. Is part #6816387 the correct one? If not, can you tell me correct part number for a 10.25” screen?

Great video. I followed it word for word and after coding the new resolution and size i get only sound. Temporary i got the perfect menu screen but then vanished. Any thoughts? TX
Thank you so much for the video. I wanted to know if you coded each line or did you do them all at once? Also will the technology in action gauges be full screen? Or do it have to be coded? Thank you very much for your help?
Hi there! Great video, very thorough. One question, I have been seeing people having to change the processing unit as well as the screen in order to get car play. Is this because the unit before 2016 is not evo? And how do I see if I have an evo unit since my F82 M4 is March 2016? Thanks
Wow, great mod! Every time I watch one of your videos, I always end up adding mods to my list of things to save up for/buy. I've always thought the screen real estate of my F series was enough, but now I want to upgrade. For the touchscreen feature, is it capable of doing pinch to zoom?
Does this also work for 2018. My 440 radio looks like its the version after this one, with only 3 squares on each screen on main menu. thank you for this video by the way

Great video, I installed a 12 inch screen. My first issue I had trouble disconnecting the connector from the old screen. I may have ripped it out, but it connects into the new screen but I’m getting no signal. Does an F 48 require coding?
Good video. Very informative. But if you can afford a replacement screen I think you can afford a $20 Dremel. BMW's are notorious for needing special tools. Would like to find a direct fit screen.
Great video, pretty helpful! Just had a quick question: My 2016 F80 is not on iDrive 5.0, so I don't get Apply CarPlay (separate mod needed for that to work). I know you said this is just a 5.0 "skin", so if I install this screen, would there be a way to get Apple Carplay to work with it/ is it preloaded with this screen? Thanks for your help!
Hi Tommy, I have an 8inch pro nav on my f20 1 series, could an upgrade like this be done on my car and would the coding be the same as you did? Great job by the way, greeting from the uk
Great video, thanks a lot, this helps much! Does this display need an DC/DC converter in the APIX2 connection or is it supported without that from the HU? So softstart (restart the car below 10-15 minutes) is no problem with black display?
Hi Tommy, I have nbt evo unit with id4....I plugged in a screen (nbt evo id5/6) I purchased from eBay but it came up with no signal on the screen....is this due to the head unit not being coded yet to see or is there something else I need to do? Any help would be appreciated
Hey there, first off this was a great vid. I always enjoy d i y videos specially when you show how easy you can get things done. Question; i have a 2017 428i xdrive, do I have to make the same modifications as you had to for your M, or can I get a plug 'n play version of this screen?
Question. Does it effect the Apple TV if that has been installed previously on the OEM screen? Everything still work the same on this new screen model?
Does the touchscreen work with your apple car play? I have a 2016 f80, with id4 "nbt evo" am I able to do the touchscreen option, I thought I need a newer unit to handle it?
Hey man so I have a 2019 M4 CS which already has a touch screen but obviously the smaller size. I already have the new screen to upgrade but when I code the new screen I should probably skip the touch screen code right? Since my OEM screen is already touch?
I dont even have a beemer but I would just like to say that this was very well explained so that anyone could do it. I wish people would make these kinds of videos for my car
Thanks !!
As the proud new owner of the trial screen I can attest that this works.
I think it’s hard for the camera to actually capture how big the difference is in size between the new and old screen but it’s big
Size DOES matter!
Where could I get one?

It wasn’t about the cost. I do have a dremel. It was easier for this purpose and less dust.
Tommy would you say this screen upgrade is noticably better day to day Driving?
Yes!!! I love it
Great video, pretty helpful! Just had a quick question: My 2016 F80 is not on iDrive 5.0, so I don't get Apply CarPlay (separate mod needed for that to work). I know you said this is just a 5.0 "skin", so if I install this screen, would there be a way to get Apple Carplay to work with it/ is it preloaded with this screen? Thanks for your help!
You’d have to do a full retrofit with antennas etc.
Hi Tommy, I have an 8inch pro nav on my f20 1 series, could an upgrade like this be done on my car and would the coding be the same as you did?
Great job by the way, greeting from the uk
You won’t be able to because your dash won’t fit it
How do i code my bmw E88 2011 128i aftermarket 10.25 head unit to install MY BMW app?
Awesome Video! Thanks 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻
Thanks Allan!
I did same retrofit good job!! Can u do full screen CarPlay using ssh\telenet
Yes you can!
Will this work with cars on NBT EVO, ID4 late 2015/early 2016 cars?
Install process is the same. Screen part number is slightly different
@@TommyLGarage part number appreciated
Great video, thanks a lot, this helps much! Does this display need an DC/DC converter in the APIX2 connection or is it supported without that from the HU? So softstart (restart the car below 10-15 minutes) is no problem with black display?
This is plug and play. What you’re referring to relates to 2015 and older
Tommy L Garage thanks! I‘m really looking for a display like this. Unfortunately they are not often to find in the German market
@@TommyLGarage can you elaborate on that. I have a 2015 M4
Hi Tommy, I have nbt evo unit with id4....I plugged in a screen (nbt evo id5/6) I purchased from eBay but it came up with no signal on the screen....is this due to the head unit not being coded yet to see or is there something else I need to do?
Any help would be appreciated
Yes. Won’t power on until you code it
Nice work! You may have mentioned it, but which car is that big screen from? Thanks!
Thanks. 2017 x6
Hey there, first off this was a great vid. I always enjoy d i y videos specially when you show how easy you can get things done. Question; i have a 2017 428i xdrive, do I have to make the same modifications as you had to for your M, or can I get a plug 'n play version of this screen?
You would need the same modifications. None of these screens are plug and play
If you have an mmi box will the touch screen work for car play and Android auto?
Yes.
Hello, awesome job! Will that screen fit my basic (2017) 320i?
Yes it should
Could you please link us the screen for the PRE LCI Models (e.g. 2014) and tell us some differences here? Is it the same functionality or?
Just look for nbt screen x5 on eBay. Should be from 2014-2016 and say NBt
Always great videos.
Thanks !
Nice work tommy. Questions... does this work for CIC, NBT or NBT evo? The larger screen looks awesome 👌
Nbt evo only. Thanks !
I was wondering if this was a possible upgrade. Was it because of the rental Z4's screen size? Looks great. 😁
Yes exactly hehe
Does this display have Netflix, RUclips available? Also can you watch while driving?
This is just an upgraded screen. Software stays the same
Question. Does it effect the Apple TV if that has been installed previously on the OEM screen? Everything still work the same on this new screen model?
I also have Apple TV and it works exactly as before.
@@TommyLGarage Super, does the Apple TV interface become touch screen as well? Thanks for the feedback!
does this upgrade the system for android auto or mirror image? Or is that a different upgrade?
Does the touchscreen work with your apple car play? I have a 2016 f80, with id4 "nbt evo" am I able to do the touchscreen option, I thought I need a newer unit to handle it?
Yes. Punch to zoom works too
This is maybe a dumb question but does these newer screens work on a BMW 1-series F20? Great video man! Cheers from Sweden
Yes they do! Connections in the back are the same. Fitting them into the dash is a different story though
Hey man so I have a 2019 M4 CS which already has a touch screen but obviously the smaller size. I already have the new screen to upgrade but when I code the new screen I should probably skip the touch screen code right? Since my OEM screen is already touch?
You will still need to adjust the resolution
which 10.25 Inch Display would fit the F33 LCI mid NBT EVO ID6
Yes
@@TommyLGarage Thank you for the coding values.
I haven't installed a 12.25 inch display, but I have another 8.8 inch with touch function.
@@TommyLGarage I have a trim template for the 12.25 inch display.
I could send it to you and you can provide it
Awesome job man, does it work on 2013 f30 328 drive ?
Yes it does!
