    LF Recommendations for aftermarket stereo

    Hi everyone,

    Pretty much the title says it all. I am looking for an aftermarket piece,ideally that runs with Android, that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. There are several options for the 3 series (the ***** GA7165 looks really nice) but finding one for my 5 series that is at a reasonable price has proven to be troublesome.

    Any suggestion is appreciated.

    What year do you have? I have an 06, 530XI and I didn't think it was possible to use aftermarket at all with an iDrive.

    07 530I...and yes, there are many system out there that work with the iDrive but all the ones that I found are around 400 to 600 dollars. Considering that you can pick an e60 for around 4 to 5k now...it seems to expensive in relation to the cost of the car, at least for me.
