Display Screen Upgrade

Featured Replies

Hi, I'm looking to upgrade my current Display Screen. Currently have this MIB2 system below with Android Auto.

I'm looking to upgrade to the screen in the third picture. Just wondering is it just plug and play or do I need to code the new screen to my own head unit?Screenshot_2025-08-07-12-41-27-979_com.miui.gallery.jpgIMG_20250714_142837.jpgIMG_20250807_124254.jpg

It won't work...

The 8" and 9.2" screens use different resolutions so you will need a new glovebox unit too.

Activate developer mode Unit 5F. Then go to the service menu. Then test mode, then HMI skin, then see what's supported.

Probably not the exact answer you are looking for, but I swapped the 6,5" display (that you have) to the 8" variant from the 'Columbus' unit, which is plug & play. I also changed the skin to the 8" variant in the 'Engineering menu' because otherwise you just have a 6,5" layout stretched over a 8" display (e.g. you will still have 5x radio icons displayed next to each other, albeit a bit bigger of course, instead of the 6 icons for the 8" displays).

The 9.2" display is only compatible with a MIB2.5 Columbus.

Anything else won't work so the glovebox unit will need replacing.

Others have updated MIB2 Columbus into MIB2.5 but as the OP has a Bolero, this is not an option.

Ok. Looks like I've tracked down a 9.2" screen and the glovebox unit from a breakers. Will these need coding to my car?

Coding is the least of the problems. Component protection is compromised, and a feature activation will fail.
