F30 NBT retrofit -2016 328xi

Hello everyone, I am a noob so pls excuse my ignorance. I have recently bought the bigger oem 8” screen, the bigger nav box and the touch IDrive controller from someone for a good price. I thought it would be plug and play but the screen says No Signal and the “box” needs more connections. Can someone be kind enough to tell me if it is possible for me to install this and exactly what else I need to buy and how to do it. Thanks! I can Venmo you a bit of cash for taking up your time too!

The screen and the box were both made in 2012

Post a picture of the back of the screen so I can see the part number.

The headunit will need coding to your car and activating with FSC codes - it's not plug and play without some work.

The screen should work with that Headunit, it likely just needs coding to it - can be done remotely with an ENET cable

I don't use bimmercode, it's a POS - however you can probably change the screen settings in the HU with it.
