Welcome


Welcome to bmwdab.co.uk, an affiliate of Cartonics GB, one of the UK's retrofit specialist, premier quality installers of car audio and other mobile media equipment.

From January 2013 BMW began offering DAB radio as an option on all new models and as standard in some high-end models, including the 7 Series, becoming the first mainstream premium manufacturer to do so. The benefits of digital radio have been compared to the switch over from AM to FM as the preferred medium. For a long time now, a car without a radio has become like a car without four wheels. In a few years, the same will probably apply to digital radio reception. Reason enough for BMW to bring digital radio to their new cars today. If you're happy with the BMW you have now, and would like to get on this next step of quality sound in your car, we are the experts who can help.

We can offer several services for your DAB requirements...

OPTION 1


Cartronics® will fit the original BMW DAB systems, fitted as per factory

Firstly we can offer the BMW OEM factory retrofit. This would give you the BMW DAB as if you ordered it from the factory. Depending on car and specification this can be quite expensive, but is still a popular option, so if you're interested send an email to us with you cars VIN number and we can quote for this option.
