    Carplay or Screen Mirroring for 2014 435i F32

    I need some help. I have been running searches for a few days and can't seem to find the right info on a carplay upgrade. Has anyone upgraded their f32 to support Carplay? Are there some specific threads with this info? Seems like there are a few aftermarket companies doing it, but they are $500+ I would like a DIY solution.

    No easy way since you don't have the NBT EVO head unit. So, you're stuck using an MMI or similar from Bimmertech

    Is there any value to adding the iphone universal snap in connector? I just purchased one, but not sure if I will actually use it.

    I think the main advantage to the snap-in connector is your phone then uses the cars external antenna vs it’s internal one (better reception)...

    Here is an update for future readers. Don’t waste your money on the universal snap in connector. It works just fine but I don’t see any benefit over the usb. I would rather have the space inside the console for storage.

    I also ended up purchasing the Avin 10.25 screen and the CarPlay adapter. It is a decent solution and looks stock.
