Install wireless charger on '18 M2?

ecitizen · 11-10-2018, 11:54 PM

Just bought a used 2018 M2 and curious to know if it's possible to add the wireless charger to it even though it wasn't installed at the factory? If so, what's the best way to do it with OEM parts? If not possible, what do you all like for an aftermarket accessory?

I installed official BMW one myself. Part number is 84102449887

Thanks. How hard was the install and I'm wondering if my '18 LCI is pre wired for it?

If you have and existing phone cradle in your center console (I did) you should be fine. Hardest bit was getting the trim off. YouTube is your friend for this install.

I don't have any cradle so wondering if it's still possible to retrofit one?

Sorry that's beyond my knowledge

The factory wireless charger blows anyway. You forget your phone in the armrest, it's a pain in the ass to always have to go in and out of there for the phone.

Get a proclip charging mount instead...
