Successfully retrofitted wireless Apple CarPlay on my F30 with NBT EVO head unit. Heres how:
1. Bought a CarPlay module from AliExpress (~150 EUR)
2. Connected it to the USB hub behind the center console
3. Coded the head unit with E-Sys to enable CarPlay
4. Paired my iPhone via Bluetooth
Works perfectly. Wireless connection, no lag. The screen resolution isnt as good as a native system but its totally usable.
Total cost: 150 EUR vs 500+ EUR for the official BMW retrofit.
