Hi Alex,
Well, i believe it should be pretty similar. As far as I know, there are no two sensors behind the bumper on the carrier, as there is no stop&go. The rest should be the same. You just might need different module for cruise control.

Anyone know if this retrofit is possible for cars with manual transmission? Stop&go was only available with automatic from factory, however you could get it combined with manual on the 3-series. The main difference is that the 3-series is missing the short range sensors.

OK, so today is the big day, when I finally got the acc+stop&go working, after around 7 months of the purchase of the first part.
So to sum this all up on what you need for LCI:
* The actual radar that mounts behind the front bumper [fits from LCI only]
* The plastic peace on the bumper that covers the radar
* Two sensors behind the front bumper [fits from LCI only]
* You might be needing new front bumper carrier, otherwise you will have to bolt the radar on. Same with the sensors. And the plastic foam behind the bumper does not fit. I just got rid of it, but then the shape of the bumper suffers a bit
* Control unit for the radar and the sensors [fits from LCI only]
* Wiring
* The cruise control switch, that mounts behind the steering wheel
* ACS/DCS control unit and the pump. This is almost always the case, that it needs chaining. [fits from LCI only]
After all this goes the coding. And then, you might be needing calibration of the camera as the error appears. Calibration can only be done by the dealer and even tho not all dealerships has the equipment. Luckily for me there was no need for the calibration.
Good luck!

But it took less time, just 4 months

Nothing difficult in this, just remove $544, add $5DF to FA and code (default coding) the following modules:
1. ACSM
2. CCC_APP, CHAMPE70, MASK, or CIC
3. EHB_60 (DSC)
4. HUD
5. KOMBI
6. LDM
7. SZL
Also SZL software should be updated to the proper version. It can be done by using ISTA/P
