2010 BMW 3 Series Dashboard Removal for Apple Carplay

With this particular vehicle the customer decided he wanted to upgrade the original stereo system, however he didn’t want it fitted in the standard place and wanted to be a little unique. We removed the dashboard from the car and installed the dashboard that you find in a BMW that has the factory iDrive system. Once this was in the vehicle, we then customised the central housing that would normally hold the original BMW screen to hold an Alpine iLX-700 double DIN 7″ touchscreen unit that utilises the Apple Car Play system giving the driver touch control over Radio, Navigation, Phone Calls, iPod Music and several other music Apps.

Where the original stereo would fit in the iDrive dashboard we custom built a housing so the driver could slot in his iPhone rather than having it float around in the glovebox.

Testimonials

I just wanted to say a massive thank you to yourself and your team on the fantastic job you did on my BMW 1 series. Initially I was stunned by what you guys had managed to achieve using a standard head unit. The sound quality is awesome, I am hearing things I have never heard in tracks I listen to time and time again. Now that I’ve had some quality listening time the system continues to only impress me. The install of the speakers and amplifier is exceptional to say the least. In line with the high level of standards you guys install to and combining this with the excellent customer service Source Sounds provide, I can only applaud you for the operation you guys have there. Thanks again (from a very happy customer)

I recently visited Source Sounds to have a new security system fitted to my Land Rover Defender. They are 170 miles from where I live. The whole experience from the time I first made contact with them was superb, trouble free and a pleasure. Whilst there I also invested in a dash cam which they hard wired and fitted for me. Despite all of the work carried out, when I collected the vehicle there was no sign that anyone had interfered with vehicle, inside and out. Paul spent an hour plus with me on collection to explain the use of the items fitted. I was also assisted with hotel transport and securing my vehicle overnight. No wonder people travel miles to use their service. I won’t hesitate to use again.

A few niggles at first that were not the fault of Source Sounds. But even though it wasn’t their fault, they spent hours trying to resolve the issues created by my vehicle being electric. I could not recommend the service level of this company any higher, their product knowledge is second to none, have all the gear right there in the shop, and will fit you in as soon as … where else do you find that these days!!
