Question Aftermarket headunit with Idrive?

I have a 2008 328xi E92 with Idrive Nav screen, Is it possible to replace the radio for a single or double din and keep the Idrive Nav screen functional? I Believe i have HIFi sound system not logic 7. The main reason for wanting a aftermarket headunit is because this headunit distorts at low volume and i just want better sound.

If you want better sound the speakers and amp must be changed
in a Hi Fi system to get that.

Question, who wrapped your trims?

Amazing work.

Also, very unique choice of colour.

I am planning on changing my amp too, but is it possible to add a head unit and still keep the Idrive Nav screen functional?
