PEMP Linux Vertical Screen E70 E71 Wired and Wireless CarPlay Retrofit Android Auto, 1920 x 720 Display Mirror Link Car Radio Bluetooth Video Player Screen for BMW X5 X6 CIC(2010-2012)

For starters. This was installed on a 2012 bmw x5 with the hifi package. This was COMPLETELY plug and play via Bluetooth, not the aux. the instructions aren’t very clear, they seem old. As some of the plugs/parts aren’t included or even on the car. But they helped me disassemble the car.Space was tight, but everything fit perfectly. I turned the car on, and was amazed. Everything works! Sounds fantastic, looks incredible. I am beyond happy with my purchase. This should be a day one mod for any e70 owner!I’d also like to add, I am not tech savvy at all and this was quite simple. It even comes with a plastic pry tool.

This was a 100% plug-n-play easy 1.5 hour install on my ‘12 X5 with CIC iDrive and factory Bluetooth.PEMP is clearly concerned about quality and customer satisfaction as it is *very* well packaged and includes clear instructions.I did a lot of research prior to selecting this unit and I’ve been thoroughly impressed with the value provided for the money.Touch screen resolution is much better than original so this is great for folks looking to improve upon their aging OEM screen.Boot from cold to the Linux screen is about 9-10 seconds and I typically see it go directly to CarPlay about 5 seconds later.So far all OEM functions and vehicle information screens are 100% retained.Get off the fence, do yourself a favor and buy this one. I’m not affiliated with the mfg. nor a competitor - just a very well pleased nerdy consumer.

Nice unit overall, very nice to be able to add a high definition display and AppleCar play to an older BMW. Fit is perfect and install is really easy and they include instructions.My only gripe is the sound quality isn’t the best. My BMW X5 doesn’t have Bluetooth stock and I had to use the cars aux input for the CarPlay to have sound. It just doesn’t sound the best but I can live with it.I’d recommend just know what you’re getting into and what to expect.

The media could not be loaded. Picked up the CIC android for our 2013 BMW X5, after reading all the reviews and watching the PEMP YouTube videos. We don’t have any prior experience so this was all new. Quick delivery, installed it the next day. Took about two hours with breaks. My biggest reminders, don’t forget the aux cord that runs to your center console, you need that for the app audio (YouTube, YouTube TV, Tubi, Prime Video, etc). Also, if your x5 has the small speaker on the upper dash, you need to hook up the purple and white cord to the android as well. The apple car play, wired and wireless work seamlessly and the audio is up to par. We added a data only t mobile prepaid SIM card (you can use a hotspot as well) and it works perfectly. We can stream live tv on YouTube tv and Tubi, play movies on all the other apps while driving (though we won’t, for safety reasons of course). We had a quick question, so we emailed and wishing 24 hours received an extremely thorough response and pictures to help identify the issue. Looks like it came with the car stock once you change the boot logo and customize your settings. Dont hesitate!

Did not work with front bumper cameras and the sound did not work. I watched all the videos and read everything I could find but just would not work. One of the OEM connectors [not mentioned in any instructions] had nothing to connect into.

This system is actually incredible and works really well. The display is very crisp and the functions are pretty easy to use the only problem I really have with this and correct me if I’m wrong sometimes when I start the car, the screen will not come on. I have to turn off my vehicle completely shut everything off and restart everything. The other issue is it will shut off by itself randomly while I’m driving and there’s no way to turn it back on unless I cycled the ignition. if I get a replacement that works perfectly then I’d rate it a five star.

Excelente producto para mi 2008 BMW X5. El funcionamiento es completamente intuitivo y se ajusta muy bien a las funcionalidades originales del carro, como lo son los mandos en el volante. Tambien el poder usar el CarPlay o Android Auto es algo fenomenal.

This was one of the easiest installs that I have ever done. My only problem was the screen resolution of the BMW menu screen. It was out of wack. I had to go to the factory settings using the code 070305 to change the vehicle type. When I changed the type, everything worked perfectly. Looks great. Sounds great!!
