Love the timeless style of my E83 X3 but I’m considering this mod. Right now I have a BT receiver in the cig lighter and it works great but I hate having a phone holder on the dash. Can’t believe you snatched this gem for $500
Amazing help. Thank you! I'm a total hack when it comes to this stuff and my son and I followed your video while installing the unit. Your step by step instructions were spot on and made it simple. Thanks again!
I got the exact same radio you did on my 05 e83. Thank you for the link to the great product and helping me install it! The only problem I had was my package came with no screws at all and their customer service basically told me that because it's not shown in any pictures that it's not included in the kit. Other than that great experience with this product! I'll figure it out 🤷♂️
Huh! I'm sorry to hear your package didn't include any screws. That's strange. I hope the install worked out smoothly otherwise!
I just picked up a x3. Will definitely be doing this install 🤗
Congrats and good luck!
Planning to get one.. Which year do you recommend? How is the reliability and performance?
The memory card clip is a cable that connects to the camera cables and allows to record while driving as a DVR. That part of the cable can be left inside the glove compartment
Thanks! Good to know!
I’d love to see you replace the headlights and do a full paint correction on the X3.
Angel eyes and then wrap the colour some millitary green or full blackout would be awesome a cheap good looking daily
I think this adapter is for a sim card that allows you to have wifi in your car using cellular data
Open the glove compartment and check on the left side, there’s the aux connection.
On the rear of the centre console on the UK version 👍
Not until after 2006
Mines 07 it's behind center console
Is the factory radio and cd work to?
This was only for 2004 cause I have one and found it as I opened the compartment also, there’s a flash light righ by the aux plus as you open the compartment.
Bought 2008 x3 2.0d xdrive few days ago , and i have same problem :D .
Your video is very useful :))
4:50 , thats for SIMcard
This dude made a great installation video!! 💯💯
Oh thank god for this, im aiming to get a 05 this weekend and was highly debating because of unit functionality so I’ll definitely be coming back to this video if I do decide to get it
Did you get it?
Did it work with the volume buttons/ arrow skip buttons on the steering wheel? Great video! Looking to do an install as well
Just got one of these for my 06 x3 and was looking for an installer but your video was so good I might tackle this myself! One question....for now, is this working off the AUX?
Go for it yourself! You got this! Yes, the AUX and bluetooth both work
Hi. Im trying to find a touch screen unit that I can replace the factory Navigation screen. Can I please have advise on this . Struggling to find anything. Everything seems to be only for the glove box version
Excellent video Thamk you. The only thiing missing was the rear view camera option installation
Does the product work as well if you have an originalmonitor installed? Thanks !
Was wondering the same thing
For some reason I have the radio antenna plugged into new radio but I can’t get the aux feature to pop up on old head unit or use volume toggle on the radio or on the steering wheel. Any advice? Please help
It’s also not showing the aux mode on the old radio. It used to work on a pre ious head unit I got but the mode isn’t popping up for this one
hi, thanks for the video, im my x3 e83 the stock radio stopped working, to install android multimedia do i need working stock radio? I see some connector goes into it.
Where did you get the system and case from?
great little tutorial before kies (: loved seeing your car there in person!
Great video! I think I've seen it at least 30 times haha.the only thing is that despite connecting the Canbus decoder I can't get the steering wheel control to work, any idea why? thank you very much!!!!
Did you figure this out?
@@hockeyrocks177 yes! i asked the seller for the manufacturer's code of the device and choose the car model. after doing this i could set the steering wheel settings
Glad it was helpful! And I'm glad you got the controls worked out!
Canbus decoders are generic. Every one will need to be configured for your specific vehicle before it will work properly.
Can you send me the link for the stereo for my BMW X3 2007
Hey man. I've had my x3 for a few years and finally decided to do this upgrade. This video looks like it will be super helpful. Was there a spot to plug in the microphone? my car has an aftermarking head unit that has a microphone on the visor for talking on the phone.
Big time flex not testing it before you put everything back together
Hi, Did you plug a ariel cable into the new unit as I didnt get one in my box. On another person video I only saw him put the original ariel lead into the old head unit. I am confused.
Thinking about this for my 2007. The factory radio is not working. Does the Seicane depend on the factory radio working?
I have a bmw x3 e83 2008 and would like to have a similar touch screen. Where can I buy it? Thank you.
What is the wheel setup? Are those 19” with spacers? Sorry I tried looking for old videos for the answer but can’t seem to find it. Would love to upgrade my 2010 X3’s wheels like that, looks amazing. Thanks
Just got a 2008 x3 I appreciate the info
Glad to help!
Did you install a new head unit Angel?
Now that you've had the unit installed for a while, do you recommend it? I've seen mixed reviews online. Does it work with your steering controls? Don't want to waste money and time on an install if its not much of a step up from just having my tablet mounted to the vents right now
I would still recommend it! The steering wheel controls work great, and the added functionality is night and day.
Thanks for the video. Helpful to see the steps as I'll be going through this soon. Question for you, does this unit have Bluetooth capabilities so I can play music from my phone that way, or does that all have to be done through the Carplay connection?
Yes! You may also play music through bluetooth instead of CarPlay
Is there considerable sound lag between the unit and your phone?
I have the same unit the only problem is the factory installed radio is not working now , any ideas ? Pls help thx
The side where you fed the wires is blocked off in my x3 😢 not sure if this is because there is an airbag fitted? Couldnt see any easy way around it but im a massive novice when it comes to playing around with fitting stuff in cars 😂
Hi JD CARS, Gooday mate. Actually I need your little help if you can help me and solve the mystery please???? ok so i have BMW X3 2004, i have installed the Android unit and its works perfectly fine. but what i wanna do now is, i wanna keep the original BMW radio in working mode same time( as its stopped working cos antenna cable not connected but power is still there. (i am planning to get new cable and connect the main Antenna line connect with this like T Connector) do i need to change any other cable to keep both running same time?? or the Original radio will start and work with sound once i connect the Antenna ??? please advise??? Thanks in advance. please guide me in details. as soon as possible and as you gets chance please... Cheers.
The noise is satisfying
Planning to get one.. Which year do you recommend? How is the reliability and performance of the X3?
Amazon
I have a question with the original Bluetooth system in the car. If I install this new touchscreen display can I use both factory Bluetooth and factory microphone or does it use the factory microphone.
1080p means the image has 1920 across by 1080 down pixels which is a lot less than the 1024x600 resolution you said in the video.
Salut. Am shimbat antigenul din instalatie, deoarece sa schimbat proprietarul. Am verifica premergător schimbării deoarece nu mai era în parametrii. După schimbarea lui am rămas fără căldură în cabina. Furtunele erau calde dar în interior deloc. Aeroterma lucra dar scotea rece. Skoda fabia 1.4 benzina. Ms
Our old factory X3 radio is fried. Do we need a working one to have this mod up an running?
Hello I’m unsure to get one of these need some help I have 2004 x3 e83 but mine dosent have aux port I have to use fm transmitter atm will I still be able to use this system ?
Many thanks
I tried to install the unit and at the end factory deck displayed “disabled” even though android head unit has light but doesn’t tune on, what do you think is wrong?? Appreciate any help here 😊
hi do you need a nano sim or micro sim in the box?
I’m wondering if this system is still working?
Can you run this through an aftermarket kenwood x303 stereo??? I would also like to try to run satellite service through it.
I just brought a 04 x3 but it haves aftermarket radio inside will I still be able to install this
my E83 has idrive, can you still install the head unit like yours?
I debated getting this, but I ended up going with the BlueBus bluetooth unit for my X3 for an OE look.
JD: Another question - Did you have to deal with the BMW X3 AUX cable from the factory? I saw other (older) videos where they had to tie into the factory AUX cable but not in yours. My kit did not have an AUX male to male so maybe it’s superfluous, but still a good question. Thanks. Bob
Hey Bob. We did not have to deal with a factory AUX cable. Have you installed the unit and tested it out?
@@JDCarsChannel I did the install without find any AUX cable included in the kit, and it seems to work ok, albeit I have a few bugs I’ll attribute to not installing the rear camera yet. The screen switches to what appears to be backup mode and looking for the rear camera. Maybe that will go away once I hook up rear camera. The factory radio doesn’t have volume so I can’t use that radio or CD player. No biggie. I’m waiting on a 90 degree antenna adapter ( from my seller on EBay) to plug in the supplied antenna cable to the old factory radio. That will allow me to use the new radio interface. All in all not bad.
Wil the heads up display still work if you add Apple CarPlay ?
Good job kid!!
🤟
Love the video and install it in my 2010 x3. Only problem is getting the carplay to work. I can get the link to download on the unit...any advise.
Glad the video was helpful! Please use the CarPlay APK download in our video description.
Great vid I love it . So will I be able to use my Bluetooth on my phone with this touchscreen audio
I got the Facelift model from 07 with the Navigation. Is it still possible to Change ?
Great video! just that for you the male connector is the female and the female is the male :D
I think is really easy. Very nice video. 👍🏼
Radio antenna should be split to both units sometimes we turn off screen
Hi JD I know you filmed this years ago and probably no longer have the car but I’m just looking for a bit of feed back on this product long term ? I’m looking to do this to my 2007 X3 . Any feed back would be great thank you
Im watching this video in my X3 and i was like does the storage area actually make that noise and it made the exact same noise lol
What cable/wire controls the car speakers? Like what do u hookup so that the new radio sounds comes out of the speakers?
The wiring adapter sends signal to the speakers
@@JDCarsChannel any tips on how to get the steering wheel buttons to work?
How do we connect dash cam to it? Which wire should be tucked in?
Dope!! Imma have to get one of those
Thank you so much for this video. I tackled my project and made it to the finish line - almost! Just two things - one, Seicane conveniently failed to send the screws to secure the unit to the base (I have emailed them about it) - do you happen to know the size and type of screw that is needed? I went to Lowe's and bought some that I thought would work...go figure, they didn't. And two, do you have any hints about getting the unit to sit flush in the base? ie, the left side doesn't sit flush and it seems the power cord hinders it and I can't figure out how to get it tight. I asked Seicane in the email also but they aren't the most helpful of folks, nor timely to respond. Any advice or hints are greatly appreciated! If it weren't for this video, I would have probably opened the box and let it sit lol
I'm glad the video was helpful! Sorry to hear about the screws. Without a photo, I'm not entirely sure what you mean by sitting flush with the base. I would recommend making sure all wires are routed correctly to make sure they aren't interfering.
Hey I'm from MA too. What do you charge for installing mine?
I have the same car. I use that "squeeky cubby" to place all my car fresheners.
I've got one how did you get the streeing wheel controllers to work ?? Do u have to have AUX and join it somewhere
The steering wheel controls worked out of the box. If yours aren't working properly, you can go to settings and set them up there.
Are you able to listen to AM radio channels on this?
Yes!
Does anyone know how to load music , video file to Seicane hard drive? I tried to Google how but can't find any video how to add files to head unit.
I think the third antenna is for GPS. if you want to have gps on the car you should put gps card on it.👍
When you ordered it, did you have any problems from Sri and because read reviews and people are giving bad reviews. Also, did you order the apply car play dongle option and camera from them to
I didn't have any issues with Siri. The Apple Car Play dongle I did purchase from them, but didn't do a backup camera.
Tengo un BMW X3 3.0i 2006. Esta pantalla Android es buena opción para instalarle a mi auto? Es que el modelo y año del auto no cuenta con pantalla y sería de mucha ayuda para mi poder tenerla.
Te agradezco la pronta respuesta y perdona.
What is the name of the set you got? I have bmw x3 2005 and would love to replace my radio with this screen!
We have a link to the screen in the description!
Do you still have functionality of the volume nob on the factory radio controls? Or does it only work on the wheel and screen itself?
No volume knob. The volume controls are touch screen and steering wheel
How can I purchase this screen?
Can I get a model with reverse camera capabilities
Yes. This model has reverse camera capabilities if you choose to install one!
Having issues with the bass being very intense and can’t find the controls for it. On the settings on the table there are sound settings but none related to bass, treble, etc. Any suggestions??
There should be an "EQ" or "Equalizer" app or page in settings... I remember adjusting it but have forgotten where exactly to find it
Does this work well still? I read reviews that say it’s a garbage unit. I have E83 as well and really want a touch screen
It worked well (with a few occasional freezes) for the remainder of my ownership!
JD Cars, did you have any trouble with the steering wheel controls not working?
All steering wheel controls worked for us, but if not: head to settings and configure the steering wheel controls there!
Do you have shops in toronto?
All good new unit fixed with only 2 crews original box have crews plus back clips 🖇️
Do you live in Alaska or som?
I have the same car and screen but i can only adjust the volume on the android display, do you have the same problem? Or can you adjust volume via the radio and steering wheel?
Occasionally that would happen yes.
@@JDCarsChannel Aah, okay for me its like that all the time, i tried resetting the canbus with instructions from the guy i bought it from, but it didnt work, it just made the CarPlay app not working too hahah
Hey so did this screen work out? I have heard mixed reviews about these cheaper ones
This one worked out well for the short time I owned this car. It would occasionally freeze or crash but not terrible
Thank you great video.
I don’t know how to connect the carkit
There is an aux in the back of the arm rest
How is this install going after a bit of time? Still good?
The screen worked very well for the remainder of my ownership!
heloo ik heb het selfde geansteleerd maar decamera werkt niet kan u meer uitleggeven over het bekabling van de caera naar de scherm
Please make sure the camera is plugged into the correct input
My hero💯
I have the pop up nav instead of the storage compartment. Can I just disconnect?
I'm not sure to be honest. Please check the product page
I notice you have links to both wired and wireless Car Play dongles. Why didn't you use the wireless one?
I've yet to test the wireless version and wanted to make sure this worked so I went with the wired version. Should I do a wireless CarPlay video?
@@JDCarsChannel I just bought the unit through your link with these options: Carplay Android Auto USB dongle, External DVR, Wireless Rearview Camera, External OBDⅡ. I bought the wireless rear camera, after Seicane assured me that it would fit my 2006 BMW X3 3.0i without need for drilling new holes and I would have bought the wireless CarPlay dongle but because it was 3rd party from Amazon, I wasn’t sure of compatibility/stability re: interruption of phone calls while driving. Yes I would love to see a video with as many full wireless options as possible. I’m sure Steve Jobs would love that too! :-) Thank you for your good work!
@@JDCarsChannel So, as mentioned, I used your link to purchase a unit on Aug 29. Since then Seicane keeps sending me emails saying they've shipped via DH for 3 to 5 day delivery, and give me a tracking number. They've sent me 12 emails! Now, on Sep 7, nine days after purchase, DHL still says they haven't even received anything from Seicane? Holy cow! Has Seicane turned into another fraudulent website. Went down this road before buying tools from China. Had to report the fraud to PayPal. They refunded me. I never use anything but PayPal now because there's so much fraud from China. Have you had any issues like this?
Does someone the usb cable appears to not work?
JD: love the video and liking the unit so far. The ease of putting it in was smooth for the most part. One big question: @ minute 15:50 you point out the antenna hookup in the rear of the seicane unit and even showed the antenna adaptor just before that. Then you video cuts to the head unit inside the clam shell. My fm antenna supplied looks exactly the same as yours BUT the male head extends too far back out the rear to allow the clam shell to close and then install your five screws. I looked at it 3 times thinking I could bend it a little to squeeze it in, but it’s not physically possible. I’m looking for a 90 degree adapter to plug in the rear and pull from there. How did yours fit? If it’s the same cable as mine I’m Impressed you squeezed it in without an aid of some kind. The GPS plug in was engineered just right. This fm adapter is odd. Your input is appreciated.
Glad the video was helpful! It sounds as though you may have received an incorrect antenna. Please reach out the the website you purchased it from!
@@JDCarsChannel I did Sunday. He’s already shipped. Impressed. Should get it Wednesday. Thanks for the insights.
Will this work with the x3 with the navigation instead of the storage compartment?
hi, got the same question/issue, mine didnt come with a cable that connects to the old "display-cable" .. did you find an answer somewhere else?
@@KSAdventures72 Nope, never got an answer.
Installed it and I only get sound on the passenger side and also the steering wheel controls don’t work. Any ideas?
I'm sorry to hear that. I would suggest checking all connections are secure. Did all speakers work prior to install?
@@JDCarsChannel it looks like it is a bad speaker. Also I can’t get CarPlay to work. I downloaded the APK and installed it. My phone does charge but CarPlay won’t launch.
I install this in 2024 and there is an echo on podcasts and phone calls. I tried plugging in a new microphone. I can’t figure it out. Any ideas from anyone?
thanks for the honest video, was thinking of doing that but I think I'll stick to the original old school screen. all the best from Switzerland
You're very welcome! Glad we could help with your decision process! Cheers!
If you have an iPhone, can you still just use the Bluetooth? Not a huge fan of CarPlay.
Yes, you can use normal bluetooth
@@JDCarsChannel thanks bro
How can I watch video off of UA-cam
Were can i buy this from.
