BMW 1 Series F20 CarPlay Box — The Rear-Wheel-Drive Compact Finally Connected
The BMW 1 Series F20 CarPlay box modernizes the driving experience of your BMW 1 Series (F20) with a latest-generation CarPlay and Android Auto module. This plug & play box integrates seamlessly with your original system, allowing you to access all your smartphone apps directly on your dashboard screen in a smooth and intuitive way. The F20 remains one of the few rear-wheel-drive compacts on the market: its driver-oriented cockpit deserved an interface worthy of its chassis.
Enjoy real-time GPS navigation with Google Maps or Waze, listen to your music via Spotify or Apple Music, and manage your calls and messages safely using voice control. Say goodbye to phone mounts and bulky cables: your interior becomes a true connected multimedia center. The CarPlay interface on the original BMW screen retains the manufacturer's panel, its resolution, and its integration into the dashboard.
An iDrive Cockpit That Changes Dimensions
As soon as you turn the ignition, the F20's floating screen displays crisp vector maps, high-definition album covers, and your synced conversations. Nothing is stuck to the windshield, and no added frame disrupts the alignment of the dashboard. This CarPlay module for the original BMW screen is completely forgotten once installed: only the experience changes.
Advanced Features and Full Compatibility
Our solution preserves all the original features of your vehicle. The iDrive controller, steering wheel controls, and rearview camera display remain fully operational. The screen automatically switches to the rear view when reverse gear is engaged, ensuring optimal safety. Control via the retained iDrive controller remains the major ergonomic asset of this solution compared to a replacement screen.
Installation is simplified thanks to a wiring harness designed specifically for NBT and NBT EVO systems. No complex coding is required. Whether you have a pre-facelift model (2011-2015) or LCI (2015-2019), our module ensures full compatibility: the BMW F20 LCI CarPlay box as well as the pre-LCI version are covered by the same reference.
- BMW F20 2010-2019 CarPlay Box — covers the entire career of the 1 Series, Phase 1 and Phase 2.
- NBT and NBT EVO Compatible — both generations of the F20 iDrive are supported.
- Wireless Apple CarPlay — automatic pairing upon ignition, with no cable to plug in.
- Heat-Dissipating Metal Alloy Box — stable operation even after several hours on the highway.
- Installation Behind the Screen or in the Trunk — two possible locations depending on the vehicle configuration.
NBT or NBT EVO: How to Identify My F20 System?
The most reliable indicator is found in the interface itself. The NBT, fitted on the older F20s, displays menus with a black background, a sidebar, and more schematic mapping; the NBT EVO, introduced with the facelift, offers colored tiles, full-text search, and 3D mapping. The presence of a CD player in the console and the design of the iDrive controller also provide a clue. Good news: this CarPlay box for BMW iDrive covers both systems, avoiding the most common reference error on this chassis.
Why Choose This Multimedia Box?
Opting for this module means choosing freedom and modernity without compromising the aesthetics of your BMW. Unlike a complete replacement of the car stereo, this discreet solution preserves the harmony of the dashboard while unlocking the full potential of your smartphone. A soldered-free plug-and-play installation is also entirely reversible, preserving the value of the vehicle on the day of resale.

Why Order Your BMW 1 Series F20 CarPlay Box from Becquet Voiture?
Becquet Voiture references its multimedia interfaces by chassis and by system generation, never "all BMWs". This is what avoids the trap of the universal CarPlay box that remains silent once plugged in. Our product sheets detail the iDrive version concerned, the preserved functions, and the kit contents, and our support responds in French before and after purchase.
