Hi,

I’ve just purchased a Dec 2012 registered F11 520d for daily shedding. It’s in fairly good order but quite a random spec car and has poverty spec business nav with a tiny screen.

Anyone on here have any experience of upgrading / retrofitting pro nav?

I’m aware you can get androidy / CarPlay type things as well, I basically just want to be able to stream Spotify from my phone and use Waze.

I think something like Andream would be your best bet:

Unsure re what's needed for retrofitting OEM stuff but it'll be more expensive and won't give you all the options IIRC

When I purchased my 2012 F11 520D MSport, I was only interested in cars with the wider sat nav screen. A high percentage of cars had these.
