However, if your E60 iDrive is the CIC then you will get the more convenient and cleaner balanced output by coding.
And about the CIC...

This is the Automatic Day/Night setting enabled in the CIC by coding in a E90 M3, it should be the same exact coding for a E60 CIC. The problem is that it only shows in the screen but it actually do nothing when selected (no change in Map display when headlights are ON).
I've been looking for a coding solution since August to no avail. I think that there should be another variable that needs to be coded to enable in full this feature, most probably in the KOMBI (instrument cluster) or even in CAS. Any tips will be much appreciated.

The RLS controls the rain and light sensing, maybe in there there's a function for it. I have noticed that some functions are linked across modules. Also the LMA controls the light functions.

With the M-ASK unit there was a nice highlevel output to the sub's that i used to drive a Amp in the boot for the SWS's. Now with the CCC there is lack of highlevel output, the gain is opened to far on the Amp and the woofers have interfierence and they pop (realy loud) when ignition is turned off. So i'm back to stock for now, thats why the question about the DSP L7 Amp.
We'll see, just bought one from fleebay.
Just the standard crappy sound.

The CCC output to the OEM amp is low level balanced.
I don't see what's the benefit of an L7 amp just to get an input signal for an underseat woofers aftermarket amp.

awesome thread
still waiting for my D-CAN cable to get started. Particularly interested if M-HUD will activate on my car.
