Hi everyone, this is my first BMW and unfortunately it only has the small display screen. Would someone possibly tell me what is the best way to upgrade. Either oem or aftermarket is fine as long as it still looks oem. Thanks in advance

Hi Wayne

Welcome to the Forum

Just do a search for Android Screens for the F30 BMW that is the route I would take. I did this with my E70 the original screen was the small 8.8" screen that had a few dead pixels plus the Sat Nav was dated. 3 years ago I chose an Erisin Unit which was very easy to fit really Plug and Play it gives me a 10.25" screen with better resolution better Sat Nav choices (without the Faff/Cost of BMW upgrades) Bluetooth Android Auto/CarPlay and of course a load of Apps I will never use 😂 

It also retains all the OEM functions of the CiC so you can switch between the Android or OEM function using the standard i-Drive controller 

Just check them out
