🚗 AutoMMI 14.9″ Qualcomm Android Car Screen for 2007-2012 BMW 1 Series E81/E87 (CCC/CIC Systems)
Wireless CarPlay & Android Auto Upgrade for BMW 1 Series Hatchback
Retains 100% OEM iDrive Functionality | Android 13 OS | 2400×900 IPS 2K Display | Plug-and-Play Installation
📌 Product Overview
If you’re tired of the outdated, low-resolution display and limited features in your 2007-2012 BMW 1 Series E81 or E87, you’re not alone. Unfortunately, the factory CCC and CIC infotainment systems in this iconic compact luxury hatchback lack modern connectivity, navigation, and entertainment options that today’s drivers expect. Fortunately, AutoMMI has the perfect solution designed exclusively for your vehicle.
Specifically, we engineered our premium 14.9-inch ultra-wide Android touchscreen upgrade to transform your E8x’s dashboard into a cutting-edge digital cockpit. We build every unit with durable metal and plastic materials and power it with a 4×45W audio amplifier for crisp, powerful sound that matches your BMW’s premium audio standards. Unlike generic aftermarket head units that require extensive modifications, we built this system specifically for 2007-2012 BMW 1 Series models with either CCC or CIC iDrive systems. As a result, it delivers a seamless factory-like integration that elevates every aspect of your driving experience.
Unlike basic CarPlay modules that only add connectivity, this complete infotainment replacement runs independently alongside your original BMW iDrive. Therefore, you get the best of both worlds: all the modern features of a smartphone integrated into your dashboard, while preserving every single original BMW function, safety feature, and premium audio system. In addition, the stunning 14.9-inch display replaces your factory screen perfectly, matching the dashboard contours for an OEM appearance that looks like it came from the factory.
Furthermore, our system uses the reliable Qualcomm Snapdragon 668S processor and offers up to 8GB RAM + 256GB storage, so it delivers smooth, lag-free performance even when running multiple apps simultaneously. Whether you’re navigating, streaming music, watching videos, or using CarPlay, you’ll consistently experience responsive operation and fast load times.
✨ Key Features of Your BMW E87 Android Car Screen Upgrade
🖥️ 14.9″ 2K Ultra HD Ultra-Thin IPS Display
First and foremost, this upgrade features an industry-leading 7.5mm ultra-thin design, which is 50% thinner than standard aftermarket screens, for a sleek, factory-integrated look. Additionally, it boasts a 2400×900 high-resolution IPS panel with vibrant color reproduction and wide viewing angles. Moreover, the capacitive multi-touch screen provides smooth, responsive operation that feels just like your smartphone. It also includes automatic day/night mode switching for comfortable viewing in all lighting conditions. Finally, an anti-glare coating significantly reduces reflections and improves visibility even in direct sunlight.
🚀 Qualcomm Snapdragon 668S Performance Platform
Under the hood, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 668S octa-core processor uses advanced 6nm process technology that boosts CPU performance by 30% compared to older chips. To accommodate different usage requirements, we offer multiple memory configurations: 4GB+64GB, 8GB+128GB, and 8GB+256GB. The system runs on the latest Android 13 operating system, which gives you full access to download YouTube, Netflix, and millions of other apps via the Google Play Store. It also supports 4K video playback for stunning entertainment on the go. Best of all, the fast boot time ensures the system is ready to use almost immediately when you start your car.
📱 Wireless CarPlay & Android Auto for BMW E87
One of the most requested features for older BMWs is seamless smartphone integration, and this upgrade delivers exactly that. It includes true wireless CarPlay and Android Auto integration with automatic connection on ignition. To ensure stable, fast connectivity, it uses dual-band 2.4GHz/5GHz Wi-Fi that can connect to both frequency bands, providing greater flexibility and a seamless internet connection. You also get full Siri and Google Assistant voice control through the original BMW microphone system. This means you can access all your favorite apps – including Apple Maps, Google Maps, Waze, Spotify, Apple Music, and WhatsApp – without ever taking your hands off the wheel. For maximum compatibility, it supports both wireless and wired connections.
🎛️ Complete Factory Function Retention (Zero Compromise)
Most importantly, this upgrade preserves 100% of your original CCC or CIC iDrive system, so you can switch between Android and BMW systems instantly with just one tap. All steering wheel controls work exactly as factory default, including volume, track skipping, phone calls, and voice commands. It also fully preserves the original fiber optic sound system, including Business and HiFi premium audio setups. Your original radio, CD player, central control knob, and Bluetooth functionality remain fully operational as well. The factory rearview camera and parking sensors display perfectly with dynamic guidelines. Additionally, you’ll get a full vehicle information display showing engine RPM, driving speed, engine temperature, parking brake status, seat belt reminders, and much more.
🎯 Advanced Multimedia & Connectivity
Beyond basic connectivity, this system offers a range of advanced multimedia features. For example, split-screen multitasking allows you to run two apps simultaneously, such as navigation on one side and music on the other. Screen mirroring lets you cast your phone’s display to the car screen, so you can play movies or share presentations directly from your device. It also includes automotive-grade GPS antennas and navigation modules that provide real-time response and high-precision positioning, even without cell service. A 4G SIM card slot provides always-on internet connectivity with maximum download speeds of 300Mbps (note: 4G only supports data services, not telephone calls).
Bluetooth 5.0 technology lets you utilize hands-free calling, number dialing, contact search, and music streaming more reliably. Dual Bluetooth connectivity allows you to connect two phones at the same time. There are also multiple connectivity options including USB, AUX, and TF card support up to 128GB. The USB port even supports network sharing, so you can connect your smartphone to the device and configure internet sharing settings directly from your phone. Finally, it supports all popular streaming services like Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, and YouTube.
🔌 100% Non-Destructive, Plug-and-Play Installation
We understand that modifying your BMW can be intimidating, which is why we designed this upgrade for maximum ease of installation. It comes with a custom BMW E8x CCC/CIC-specific wiring harness with factory-grade locking connectors. This means you won’t need to cut, splice, or solder any wires – you simply plug into the existing connectors. You won’t need to reprogram or code your ECU either, which prevents fault codes and warning lights. We designed the mounting base specifically for 2007-2012 E8x dashboard contours, ensuring a perfect fit. Best of all, you can reverse the entire installation completely and remove it without leaving any traces. For most professional installers, the process takes only 1-2 hours.
