Our plug and play Hive MMI Apple CarPlay/Android Auto retrofit module has been specifically designed for all BMW's running the CCC iDrive software, this new system will give you the ability to use your favourite music apps, navigation apps and also mirror your phone screen in real time to your original iDrive screen on top of some other great features.
 
This retrofit will not require that you remove OR replace your original screen, and this software integration will work alongside your current BMW system, meaning you can still access all your original menus, service history etc.
 
BY THE WAY: It's fine If you don't have bluetooth and/or bluetooth music within your original BMW system that’s absolutely no problem, even without these features in your original system, this retrofit will continue to work flawlessly.

PLEASE NOTE FOR THOSE WHO CHOOSE TO SELF INSTALL: The BMW CCC CarPlay integration system can be very fragile when installing, you can ONLY change toggle switches when the car is OFF and power cable is UNPLUGGED from the module after 30 seconds to drain power. 
 
Failure to do this can cause the unit to short circuit and ultimately stop working. 
 
You will need to ensure not to pull or stretch wires as this can also cause damage.  

Any damage incurred on HiveMMI modules or STINGER Screen orders, due to a result of self installation, or installation by a third party outside of our VEEHIVE Approved partners will deem your product warranty VOID, which we will under no circumstances accept a return for.
