Has anyone taken the DAB radio option on their cars? How's the reception in the UK.

Someone was selling the DAB radio module Part No. 65 12 9 119 355. Wondering if you can simply buy it and plug it in. What do the retrofit experts think?

From the other thread the last information we have is that there is no official retrofit.

It's never stopped folks before!

For those with this option how do you access the DAB stations. Does DAB appear as another Audio Source on the top or are the DAB and analogue stations shown under FM itself. Just trying to figure out how the DAB tuner interfaces with the head unit. Anyone with access to WDS 10? who can look this up?
