We will let you know which options your car has, and what we have to offer. 

BMW systems

BMW has three basic audio system levels- Stereo, HiFi, and Top HiFi/DSP. These sound systems can be controlled by the iDrive navigation system or by the Professional CD player. (In the US, we rarely see the “Business CD” head unit, the E83 X3 being the notable exception). In some M cars, the Top system is Individual or Enhanced Premium. In most BMWs, the Top system is branded Logic 7 or Harman/Kardon.


Example – E90 3-Series sedan with Stereo
