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.
Which iDrive system do I have, CCC, CIC, or NBT? Click here to find out.
NOTE, if your car equips with NBT system, then the LVDS behind the original screen is 6 pins. If your car equips with CIC system, then the LVDS plug may be 4 pin or 6 pin. You must remove the original screen to check 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 compatibility, please send photos of existing dashboard with the home menu on the screen, the VIN of your car and the LVDS connector behind the existing screen to info@sigmacarstereo.com, we will help you to check.
