I would be ok with it not opening and closing so far I'm in for one assuming it's like that. Can't wait. Great find in the photos

I'll wait for one more company to see if they will offer open/close solution. I dont want to change the aesthetics of the interior. This would look like a cheap after market solution imho, this car doesnt need more cheap plastic in the cabin. Oh well

I personally like this a lot. I will try to buy it once it's available and build a custom cover/trim to match the leather on the dash in an effort to make it look stock. Thanks for gathering all this info for us Dave.
Last thing, do you have the direct link to the product? |

you would honestly ruin the line of the z4 to get a better nav screen...crazy. Now it was a screen and software swap while retaining the current housing and open/close functionality that's a different story.

Well anyway an update:- I've taken the plunge and will be having one of these screens for my z4. Once it's here I'll be producing a video on it to include (short) unboxing, full installation and comprehensive "how to use it". I'm just awaiting finalization with the manufacturer and then we'll be a GO! I'll also make a full written How-To as well. These will then be followed by written and video How-To's on Auto Wiper/Auto Lights retro-fit and Auto Dimming Rear View Mirror retro-fit as well as a video on the Cruise Control retro-fit to go with my written one I've already done. I'm also fitting after-market rear parking sensors and reverse camera to go with the new Android unit so will do a separate video on that as well. Stay Tuned

Looks pretty nice. I don't mind that it doesn't retract into the dash. Most cars built today seem to have a floating screen.
Question: The AVIN USA product seems to include an iDrive-like controller that can be installed so that you do not always have to reach for and use the touch screen. Are you going to add something like that? |

I don't see pricing listed. How much is it? Also, does it fold back into dashboard like OEM?
