I paid 3,000 for the rear cam + magic box, and these people can play well with the magic box.

Good luck the problem should be easily solved.
I went there today & they taken out my head unit for modification. They said can add one AUX IN for me. Next Tuesday go back for installation. Good luck I think

Hello everyone, I'm from HK. New to this forum and just bought a 2009 e60 523i. Would like to know a few thing about my e60:

1. My car doesn't have xenon light, is there any place in HK would you recommends to install error free xenon?

2. From my understanding, all BMW use runflat tyre. But my car do have a spare tyre. Is that mean 523 is not running runflat by factory?

Thanks so much in advance.

Felix

No, i did not have runflats in my car..


I cant see reason why bmw has made this audio things so freaking difficult.. I have 2010 challenger which has touch screen, you can use cd's or just plug your phone or memorystick into the car and that freaking great.. There is also playlists and such a things..
Also there's alot of problems with running the cd, ive read so many stories where the cd player doesnt work, and new one costs quite a much
as only it's cd player..

You cannot just install xenon. I am using halogen and the only upgrade is to install HID bulbs and ballast as Pingu mentioned. If you want xenon projector lamps, then you will have to spend a lot of $$$ buying new headlights and all the other parts necessary to make it work.

I think need to find AK again...
+/- shift down can go up and down except M1 which you cannot go there normally unless you are in slope.
