Note above year range is for your reference only. Send a photo of the dashboard(radio system) to info@sigmacarstereo.com if you are unsure about compatibility.
Android Version: 12.0 (genuine specs).
FAQ: May I ask if the Android unit will pass its navigation information to the heads-up display?
NO. But the HUD will work as before. It will just not display the information from our new screen. I had driven the latest 2023 BMW X5. Unfortunately, the hud only shows the built-in BMW navigation guide and no information from carplay.
NOTE: if your car equips with an NBT system, then the LVDS behind the original screen is 6 pins. If your car equips with a CIC system, then the LVDS plug may be 4-pin or 6-pin. You must remove the original screen to check if it is 4-pin or 6-pin. The products are totally different, if you choose the wrong LVDS connector style, you will get the wrong product.
If you do not know how to verify the fitness, please send photos of an existing dashboard with a home menu on the screen, the VIN of your car, and the LVDS connector behind the existing screen to info@sigmacarstereo.com, and we will help you to check.
How do I know what system it is on my BMW?

Is this product plug-and-play? Do I need to program or code my BMW? Do I need to buy an external GPS antenna? Can I still check the car info on the OEM screen?
