    Hi mate, I have a 2018 318i with 6.5 inch screen, factory fitted reverse camera with no gps. It is an ID6 EVO version with a base model audio system. I want to upgrade to exactly the same unit that you have installed. My car does not come with an aux input port in the middle armrest compartment and only has a USB port. Can I still get this working on my car, the installation seems straight forward and I do not see any issues there. I wish someone can answer my query and I can go ahead with the purchase

    Does the audio come through the car speakers with the set up shown in this video. Or do you have to add in an extra cable wired from this to the aux input in the centre arm rest. I've watched some videos on the MMI boxes, and they seem like a lot more work but also have to add the additional aux wire.
