I prefer to use an iPad as there is no carplay conflict as the ipad does not have the embedded carplay app.
To use wireless its best to use flight mode to avoid conflicts
I mentioned the suppler above for the modBMW adaptor, just above as he has awesome service and is quite a lot less expensive than others who all supply the same generic adaptor
Thanks for that. I ordered the modBMW one. Accounting for conversion from Euros to USD, it's only $75 delivered on DHL. Appreciate the advice!
