Add wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto to your BMW Z4 while keeping the factory screen, iDrive controller, steering wheel controls and BMW sound system.

CarPlay Direct is the official UK authorised Mr12Volt stockist, and the BMW Z4 E89 uses the genuine Mr12Volt CIC interface, connecting directly through the car’s MOST fibre-optic system rather than relying on an AUX input or replacing the original screen.

Find Your BMW Z4 CarPlay Kit

Apple Carplay & Android Auto Upgrades

The BMW Z4 E89 was produced from 2009 to 2016 and Mr12Volt lists CIC and CIC MID systems fitted to this generation as compatible with its BMW CIC CarPlay interface.

Unlike some BMW models where the iDrive system changed several times during production, finding the correct CarPlay kit for the Z4 E89 is relatively straightforward.

How to Check Your BMW Z4 Has CIC

The compatible BMW Z4 E89 CIC system normally has either a 6.5" or 8.8" factory display with the BMW iDrive controller positioned on the centre console.

Both CIC screen sizes use the same Mr12Volt interface.

If your Z4 has no iDrive display and instead has a standard BMW radio/CD head unit, do not order the CIC kit without checking compatibility with us first.

Got an earlier BMW Z4 E85 or E86 from 2003–2008? Get in touch and we can advise you on the options currently available for your car.

WhatsApp us your registration or VIN and we'll confirm compatibility before you order.

Why choose Mr12Volt

Many low-cost BMW CarPlay adapters connect through the AUX input, which means compromised sound quality
and reduced functionality. Every genuine Mr12Volt interface integrates directly with your BMW's MOST fibre optic network instead, preserving digital audio quality, steering wheel controls and iDrive operation exactly as BMW intended.
