Android Auto Integration
I just bought a 2014 535i XDrive and was shocked to see there was no backup camera - It has the cold weather package & the M-Sport but no camera -
I have been doing research here and saw there are different after market products to add android auto and backup cameras - I have seen several that look the exact same but the prices are all over the place - Are these all the same? AND is it a decent product that works well? Thanks! $650 - https://www.bimmer-tech.net/products...o-mmi-retrofit $245 - https://www.android-car-dvd.com/prod...32066140438664 - I also found one on ebay for $299 - Wireless CarPlay Android Auto Interface for BMW 5 7 Series F10 F11 F07 GT F01 |

Same hardware, pretty different software. Research here:

I had Bimmertech, but was not happy with the quality. Colors looked washed out, even on an NBT. If that's not something you care about, you won't have many other options.
I can only imagine what that other one looks like... |

I have one of the Andream models and I'm happy with how CarPlay works, especially wirelessly. Android Auto works fine... when wired. Wireless was lagging like crazy when I tried it for more than 10 minutes.

My Bimmertech MMI has OK colors, but front view camera is sub par, really bad quality.
