volvo tft display retrofit price quotation

Used TFT clocks DIM from S/V60, XC60, S80II, XC/V70III made in the years 2014 to 2017 (the unit from V40 series can only be used in V40 cars - it has different mechanical shape than x60, x70, x80)

make sure that you located the TFT DIM that matches the transmission type of the target car - Automatic (PRND display) or Manual (+ Gear -) on the right side of the display. Diesel/petrol fuel type of the donor car does NOT matter.

2pcs original Volvo terminals for repair (P/N 30656697) or 2 used terminals from a white DIM Volvo connector which is a standard for all Volvos starting from 2005

Then press DECODE CEM. We must warn you this process can take up to 24 hours(but on average it usually does not take more than 12 hours). During the whole process you can interrupt the decoding process and continue later. If you do the CEM PIN decoding then you no longer need to do it again. Thanks to this you can also make other changes in the vehicle configuration including the TFT retrofit. After this process is done you will receive an email to the account you put in in the beginning.

Then choose CAR CONFIGURATION and then “Car configuration wizard”. Then you only need to choose the “TFT retrofit” wizard. Make sure DIM is connected.

2 new fixing wires (Volvo P/N 30656697 or used) must be connected to position 7 and 8 to the white DIM connector. Keep plugging in the wires into the “body” of the connector until you can hear them click properly. Then you just place and click in the blue thingy to its place. If the wires do not sit they are supposed to the blue thingy will not stick.

Connect DiCE again, turn the ignition key to position II and open VDASH again on your computer. Go to “Car configuration wizard” and choose TFT retrofit again.

VDASH will begin to look for the newly connected TFT DIM. If all wires are correctly plugged in, the update process will begin. If not then check the connecting of the wires again using the multimeter.

Your vehicle will restart itself many times during the process and at the end you will see a picture of the vehicle, the state of fuel and more. At the very beginning the incorrect measures can be displayed, but after a short trial run it should be fixed. The kilometres will also automatically reappear.

You can change and move the clock motivesonly when the engine is running (this does not have any specific explanation). The designated motive is Elegance(grey or brown). It is possible to reprogramme this motive to a blue version “R-design” (using car configuration > advanced settings > Advanced TFT DIM settings > Screen Skins > DIM: R-design menu), motives Ecoand Powerremain unchanged.

1. Temporarily disconnect newly connected cables from the white DIM connector, and connect the original DIM2. Start the engine (SCL the steering lock will now unlock)3. While the engine is running, disconnect the original DIM connector and reconnect the additional wiring, connect the TFT DIM4. Turn the engine off and lock the car5. SCL will NOT turn on again (unless you connect the original DIM). You will not observe any further immobilisation issues.

Hmm... after viewing some Youtube videos, it looks like the center TFT should just work with the stock connector. Looks like only the "eco", "power", and gear selection indicator don"t work out of the box. Looks like the Russian adapter fixes the gear selector display, at the minimum.

With high resolution digital instrumentation, you can adapt your car"s instrumentation layout and interface according to your preferences. The 8" active TFT screen (Thin Film Transistor) gives the interaction between car and driver a new dimension.

Performancehas an uncompromisingly sporty look with red background lighting. The tachometer appears in the centre gauge and a digital speedometer appears in the centre of the display, which reinforces your sense of control. On the right is a power meter that tells you how much power is available and how much is used at that actual time.Part. No.Description

Determining the iDrive version installed in your BMW is vital if you are intending to upgrade your iDrive with on of our genuine retrofit kits or if you intend to install a Retrofit CarPlay/Android Auto Kit such as the IMI-1000 from Integrated Automotive. After reading this article you will be able to determine your iDrive version and also have thorough background knowledge of the history of iDrive.

For us to configure your retrofit system correctly with a genuine BMW NBT-EVO iD6 retrofit it one of our compatible IMI-1000 interfaces (including a plug-and-play wiring loom) for your car, we will need to know what version of iDrive you have installed in your vehicle. Using the simple steps outlined in this article, you will be able to destrrmine your iDrive version.

There are three generations of iDrive system which are compatible with the IMI-1000 Retrofit CarPlay multimedia interface. These are the CCC, CiC and NBT iDrive systems. These systems are fitted to BMW vehicles manufactured between the years 2004 to the present day (2019). After 2016/2017 most BMW models migrated over to the “EVO” iDrive System. The EVO system does not require the IMI-1000 to activate CarPlay/Android Mirroring, Integrated Automotive can offer an alternative upgrade path which “activates” CarPlay/Android Mirroring for NBT-EVO equipped vehicles, contact us for more information regarding NBT-EVO Apple Carplay activation. Please note that BMW do not support android auto so if you want android auto in your BMW you will require the IMI-1000 for that.

CCC, CiC and NBT iDrive Systems were not originally equipped with the electronics required run Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. A software update alone is not enough to “enable” Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The IMI-1000 Retrofit Kit adds the necessary hardware to your vehicle in order to process information streamed to and from your phone. It will also interpret the CAN messages to and from the in-car iDrive user controls. Examples of such CAN messages are those sent from the rotary control on the central console as well as the steering wheel user controls. The messages are read, processed, interpreted and relayed in order to control the CarPlay/Android Auto interface.

Vehicles equipped with NBT-EVO iDrive will  already have the necessary hardware to provide Apple CarPlay and Android Mirroring functionality (BMW do not support and auto), these vehicles simply require “software activation” to enable Apple CarPlay/Android Mirroring. For clarification, NBT-EVO vehicles (mostly manufactured after 2017) do not require additional electronic hardware such as the IMI-1000 for CarPlay if you have iD6 pro navigation, ENAVEVO systems (6.5 in display) usually do not support native CarPlay.

CCC iDrive was introduced to production vehicles during 2003 on the 5 Series E60/E61. It was then later rolled out to other BMW models up until 2009 with the X5 and X6. CCC iDrive benefited from two updates during its time on the market, in 2007 and 2008.  Some BMW’s manufactured in 2009 were fitted with the new CiC controller (installed on the centre console) but still had the CCC head unit. These cars are essentially still CCC iDrive vehicles and were considered  “Hybrid” CCC/CiC iDrive systems. The CCC iDrive system features an 8.8in 640×240 pixel display.

There is another system called Mask II which shared the same main menu format as the CCC Pro Nav system but has a smaller 6.5in display. If you have Mask II our CCC IMI-1000 retrofit CarPlay and android auto kit will enable you to retrofit CarPlay and Android Auto to your BMW

CiC iDrive Systems feature a higher resolution display in comparison to CCC systems, moving from a 640×240 pixel display on the CCC iDrive to a 1280×480 pixel display on the CiC iDrive, this offers a sharper and more attractive look to the display.

2. User interface :The user interface is distinguishable from CCC and NBT interfaces as it features a noticeable red border around the selected menu option (see below), however to confuse things, the display below will have an NBT style 6 pin LVDS connector, whereas the widescreen Pro Nav option 609 vehicles will have a 4 pin LVDS.

As can be seen in the image above, the 2011 BMW 1 series (F20) features a single CD/DVD slot and red border on all 4 sides when a menu item is selected. But this system is not a purely CIC system, it is known as HU_ENTRY and is also available in F3x vehicles without navigation. These systems have 6 pin LVDS displays.

*Note:It is worth mentioning that there were some “Hybrid” models that were equipped with the 2-wire higher resolution LVDS display yet they still used the CiC menu system, these are known as HU_ENTRY and HU_ENTRYNAV iDrive. These systems can sometimes be confused with the standard CiC system, if you have a 2012 BMW F3x you should be aware that you may not have a standard CiC System (if you are unsure which system you have, please contact us).

NBT iDrive Systems are configured with 6.5in, 8.8in and 10.25in displays, this means you cannot use display size as an indicator of having NBT iDrive. It is always best to use either the date of manufacture or the visual appearance of the user interface (or both) as your method of determining if you have NBT iDrive.

If you have iD4 iDRIVE the best solution to obtain CarPlay is to retrofit an iD6 head unit into the vehicle. We can offer the iD4->iD6 retrofit, here is the product page: https://integratedautomotive.co.uk/product/bmw-id4-to-id6-retrofit-with-carplay-activation/

That said with the issues that guys seem to be having, although a software update is supposed to be helping that issue, it does not interest me in the least Just as I could do without keyless start, I can do without the TFT.

In this article: We"ll review 10 of our best pick Head Up Displays (HUDs) on the market, and walk you through some of the common knowledge to help you decide and installation information.

If you always thought fighter jet technology or Star-Trek was cool, you can have a piece of that in your car. Head-up displays (or HUD) were first used in fighter jets to reduce distractions and keep the pilot’s eyes in front of him. Now, vehicles are using that same technology to make cars and trucks safer. Some high-end cars have head-up technology as standard equipment, but most offer it as an extra cost option. If your vehicle doesn’t have head-up display or you don’t want to buy that higher trim level, you can add your own aftermarket head-up display.

A heads-up display can project vehicle information such as GPS maps, speed, temperature and other information to a film on the windshield, a portable shield, or directly to the windshield. It keeps your eyes on the road while you are looking at directions or checking the status of your vehicle’s engine fluids. Some HUDs can display more information than others, have different display types and more or less customizability. Price can vary drastically as well, so it"s important to compare some of the leading HUDs on the market to find the combination of features you"d like at a price you can afford.

In most cases, a head-up display connects to your vehicle’s OBD port and projects real-time data to the windshield.

They feature different colors and multiple symbols to display data so that you can see what you need at only a glance. Most HUDs are “plug and play” and are easy to install.

It"s important to note that power, data hookups and information displayed and screen format can vary widely. You need to make sure a heads-up display will work with your vehicle too. And for some HUDs, if you don’t have an OBDII hookup you won’t be able to use it. Make sure that your dash measurements will fit the product you chose, and is within the distance required from power and the OBDII port.

The Lufi XF is like a multi-gauge and a HUD mixed together. It has a small footprint, but displays critical information about the vehicle in real time.
