Radio-Upgrade
BMW X3(F25)/X4(F26) 2011-2017 radio upgrade with 8.8" screen
Aftermarket GPS Navigation Head Unit is specially designed to upgrade BMW X3(F25)/X4(F26) 2010-2017 factory LCD screen unit(or storage box on the dashboard). It has the same plug-and-play harness as the factory head unit. This head unit only replaces the original LCD screen unit and retains the factory FM/CD unit, so the original BMW car computer/CD/FM/AM/Sirius/XM will still work as before.
Compatible Vehicles:
BMW X3(F25) 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017
BMW X4(F26) 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018
If you are still unsure about the fitness, please send a photo of the dashboard(radio system) to us so we can check and advise.
How do I know what system it is on my BMW?
Our product fits this dashboard:
NOTE, if your car equips with an NBT system, the LVDS connector behind the original screen is six pins. If your vehicle equips with a CIC system, the LVDS plug may be four pins or six pins. You must remove the current screen to check if it is four-pin or six-pin. The products are different. You will get the wrong product if you choose the wrong LVDS connector style.
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 current screen to us, and we will help you to check.
