Apple Carplay

Hey so i have a 18 M5 base and i bought it CPO a while back and never had apple carplay activated. So what im wondering is if i buy it through the connected drive is it going to be full screen or will it be 3/4 screen. I dont want 3/4 screen and dont wanna waste 300 bucks. Thanks for your help!!

I have a CPO I purchased in 2018, the free CarPlay started for MY2019 and no joke they won't give it to you, I've tried multiple times. Also for sure 3/4 screen, I did for a few months and found it too glitchy to be worth the money and asked for a refund.

3/4. It is a simple fix to go full screen with BimmerCode or eSys assuming you are on the current integration level (I-step). Tons of threads on it here and in the G30 forum.
