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

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!!

I bought a car radio from somewhere else with the intention of replacing the factory installed one. I contacted Halfords and they bluntly told me that they did not fit a radio that was not supplied by them. I then stumbled upon Source Sounds on internet and decided to give them a try.
What set wind to my sails was their warm customer relations and their confidence that it was “do-able!”. Their charges are reasonable as well.
They changed the fascia and in the process provided extra space for auxiliary equipment (space that had been covered by only two knobs on the previous radio). They kept me updated on the progress. I now have a trim dashboard , and am over the moon! Thanks to Paul and his team. Your customer care is second to none.

Absolutely brilliant, outstanding service from advice on which alarm to have, very professional install and great introduction to the system when it’s fitted. I’d recommend these to anyone. Well done!
