You’ve probably experienced it: stepping into a newer car with a CarPlay system—the smooth interface, the intuitive Waze or Maps view, the seamless control of your favorite streaming services like Spotify or Apple Music. Once you’ve had it, there’s no going back. Whether it’s the convenience or the comfort of wireless connectivity, the modern tech experience is hard to beat.

But what if you love your BMW and don’t want to compromise the classic driving experience? Upgrading can feel overwhelming, especially with so many disruptive and often unreliable infotainment options on the market—often from lesser-known brands that don’t meet BMW standards. The last thing you want is a retrofit that diminishes the quality, reliability and functionality you expect from your German car.

Luckily, with the Mr12Volt P2000 series, you don’t have to sacrifice your iDrive system. With this unit, we achieve seamless integration that preserves all your OEM features, most importantly maintaining sound quality.

Why We Trust the Mr12Volt P2000 Series for BMW

1. Keep Your OEM Microphone* and Screen

The Mr12Volt P2000 system works seamlessly with your BMW’s OEM microphone* and screen, ensuring your hands-free calls and voice commands continue to work as expected. Whether you’re chatting with a friend or using Siri, there’s no need to worry about losing the quality you’re used to. Plus, because it integrates directly with your OEM screen, you’ll avoid any messy aftermarket displays. It’s as if your car was made for this upgrade.

2. Revert Back to OEM with the Click of a Button

We know that access to all your iDrive controls and alerts isn’t just a convenience—it’s a necessity. That’s why the Mr12Volt P2000 series ensures seamless integration while preserving every OEM function. With a push of the volume button, you can instantly switch back to your original system. Whether you need the stock interface for specific features or are planning to sell your car, reverting to the OEM setup is effortless—just one press to toggle between your original iDrive and the CarPlay interface.

3. Lossless Audio Quality

If you’re an audiophile (or just appreciate great sound), this upgrade is for you. Unlike retrofit options that rely on Bluetooth or AUX connections—which can compromise sound quality—the P2000 delivers lossless audio through your BMW’s MOST bus (optical input). That means you’ll get the best sound quality possible with no degradation. Whether you’re listening to music, podcasts, or taking calls, the audio remains clear, crisp, and rich—just as BMW intended.

We understand that installing a retrofit like this can seem daunting, especially depending on your BMW’s model year. While the Mr12Volt P2000 series is DIY-friendly, it’s an extensive retrofit that we’d recommend for expert or intermediate DIYers. The process involves careful wiring and depending on your vehicle’s model year and original manufacturer options, may also require programming.
