Hello everyone! I was curious if anyone knew if the base 6.5 inch screen can be changed out with the 8.8 inch with no issues? Curious to the cost as well.

Anybody know of any aftermarket alternatives currently in the works?

Thanks for any information!

So last I looked thereā€™s tons of options for after market replacements for m2ā€™s on eBay
Wonder if these would work like $400
Anyone know ?

Hopefully Supra soon
To those wondering, MMI Prime doesn't work on the Z4 and Supra but they are working on it. They said it won't be available this year though.

Why not take the car to a local car stereo place and ask them?

Doubt they would know lol Iā€™d be better off asking a BMW tech, just wanted to see if I could find an answer online without having to bug someone in person

It can be done. Super easy. Run into the same problem myself and took me a while to bite a built and spend $$$ on the large 8.8" screen. Only GR Supra screen will work as BWM units will not integrate into our dash. Ask me how I know. Bezel surround is completely different.

Once installed, change is amazing.

I sold my car back to stock display and I am selling my 8.8" LCD screen now on this same forum. Here is the link to my add on Electronics Member Marketplace sub-forum.

https://www.supramkv.com/threads/fs...ay-8-8-cid-gen2-j29-420-us.11241/#post-162887

Let me know if you are interested. Selling the LCD unit for $420 US shipped.
