Thata right. If yours are original and have not been tampered in any way (changing to higher wattage, etc) then you've got every right to claim.
Although I have not checked, I will be very surprised if PML says that the Fog Lights are not covered.

BTW, congrats on your new nest Ed! Looking forward to your invite..... Yum!

KNN, that means I kanna "hai gone" by this PML salesman at Alexandra . His name is Ivan Lim. I thought he won't bullshit me cause he was one of the piorneer with PML for more than 20+ years. Some more, I ordered 2 unit E60 from him at the same time (for myself and my colleague). Last month, I received a letter that he has left PML.

hehe...can, but first you have to elaborate what do you want?
for ipod, you can go down to PML and get the aux audio installed 300 plus sgd...if i can remember well.
oh...remember to remove the resistor and capacitor to get pure audio. ask your outside installer to remove it for you.

as to Garmin, you can buy a garmin GPS from sim lim tower or square and download the map from Malsingmaps.com the speed trap is already incorporated in the map.

or, till the next meetup, we can talk more. over a cup of coffee!
Thanks vm LMK. Do include me in the group's future outing or gathering. I live in Novena area. Would probably wait for the new iPod interface which is out in July... but not sure how long it takes for PML to get it in Singapore...maybe Sep?

Is there anything we can do (such as s/w upgrade) for the E60 to make it read MP3 CDs? This would solve the gap whilst waiting for the "new iPod interface" to come in Q3 of this year...

Not for Business radio. If you have navigation, the latest CCC firmware upgrade will let you play MP3 CDs.

Here is a list of places where the traffic police may put up speed traps:

Well, I have got pro radio in my E60 w/out navigation and it plays MP3 in the single disc slot fine. However, my M6 with Pro radio and navi plays MP3 in the single slot but it skips and does not function really well. Maybe its faulty but then again, maybe its not because many from this forum in Europe are complaining that Pro radio with Navi does not play MP3.

On a separate note, I spoke with someone from BMW Asia today and he thinks (not absolutely) that the 335i may not be destined for our shores. He also says there will most likely be a 535i but again, he's just not too sure Singapore will have any. Lets hope he's wrong. Also, the cabrio will be a hard top just like the Mercs. BMW engineers have been trying to get around the noises that these folding hard tops make and it seems they have attained some success.
