BMW 5 Series Apple CarPlay & Android Auto Screen Upgrade (2004–2008)

Upgrade your BMW 5 Series E60 or E61 (2004–2008) with a premium Apple CarPlay & Android Auto screen upgrade designed specifically for BMW E-Series vehicles equipped with a factory-installed display and CCC iDrive system.


This system replaces the original BMW factory screen with a high-resolution touchscreen while fully retaining OEM integration, iDrive controller functionality and the original BMW interior appearance.

Factory AUX input is REQUIRED for this system. Vehicles without factory AUX must have AUX retrofit or activated before installation - AUX is used for audio transmission from the CarPlay / Android Auto system.

Note: BMW 5 Series E60 / E61 models equipped with CCC iDrive (2004–2008) use a fixed factory screen size.

If you’re unsure whether your vehicle is equipped with CCC iDrive, send us your model year or VIN and we’ll confirm compatibility before shipping.


Product images show example installations and user interfaces.

Actual screen appearance may vary depending on BMW model, dashboard layout and selected configuration.
