all the wiring is there jazzy, you can even use your LVDS cable (thats the long thick one that goes from your old mas-k cd to the monitor) all you might have to do is shave/cut off a little bobble from the alloy sleave, to fit properly, then for ?8 just buy the fan wiring harness and the voice wiring harness, go to any good car radio shop and buy a aftermarket gps antenna, saves pulling your headlining down etc to fit a new sharks fin ariel, and put up by the rear view mirror workes perfectly, its all plug and play. not all need coding but most do.
i-drive is a pain to change but there are cheats...

its an easy job mate have courage.

Hi Dr Dave,

May I know more about this "cheat" you are talking about? Does it mean that you have Idrive Low working ?

Thanks

Hi Sanj,

After the upgrade, how did your audio sound?

Lack of bass or normal?

Thanks

It sound's just as it was before the retrofit mate,no lack of bass at all.

Hi Sanj, Good for you.

I am still waiting for my controller high , so I can't get to the Bass/Treble page as the knob keeps going left.

And the ebay seller has problems with his limit so the shipment's delayed...

I can't wait to try out... But I am enjoying the new PDC and of course the BMW logo haha. These 2 comes at a high price.
