Has anyone bought this Apple CarPlay box?

Also there was a group buy last month on the F30 forum for unichip. Just FYI.

Ok, so what is ATM and CID high? What is the purpose of the gps emulator? What negative effects did this upgrade give you?

There's probably 4-5 different companies out there (maybe more). I can only speak for Unichip not being compatible with RSE.

CID high - display with a touchscreen

ATM is basically a newer version of telephone module that provides connected drive services on NBT evo.

CID high is just a touch display that comes with NBT evo. It is not required as the original one can be used with a voltage adapter.

I have fully working connecteddrive etc. Only thing lost is send to car from phone and lock/unlock from app.

Wouldn't mind this swap if I could procure it all at once in a simple manner. Couldn't care less about touch screen

I just spoke with a Cathy from unichip-tec.com, the GB is $285, good deal - confirmed, shipping extra $28 using DHL, duties extra to be paid by buyer. Delivery within one week.

Single piece price is $399 for today that includes shipping, but duties extra.

I can do a GB if anyone tell me how to do it or if r33_RGSport can do it for us for some $$

I don’t care about touch screen either, but I do use some of the remote services (remote auxillery heating & locking/unlocking).

Is this the version without wireless, right? Do you mean custom clearance by duties?
Who should I contact if I want to be par of group buy?

I would keep checking ebay for anyone selling ATM units in north america if you are genuinely interested. I was lucky to find one easily but even I had to ask around to sellers selling NBT Hu units if their donor cars had one they could sell me. That is the real bottleneck in this retrofit since they are not common to come by, cannot be bought new or from Europe and cannot be too old/damaged/repaired. Connecteddrive service relies on the ATM. None of the resellers like bimmer-retrofit sell one with their kits usually since they are hard to get.

Once you have the ATM, everything else is very easy relatively as they are all interchangeable parts and some programming.

PM me the detail of the product and the company info. I'll find out if I can get it going.
