This is absolutely absurd. The fact that anyone could do this, much less document it so well is simply ridiculously fantastic.

If you have a pre-facelift MOST BUS iDrive that is Windows driven, this is possible. Never in my lifetime did I think I would actually see someone try it.

It is in Spanish, but you will get the point.

I think one of those skills is insanity. I'm going to go ahead and assume that this would void your warranty. As a matter of fact I think BMW would pretty much disown you.
