That manual will be good but it seems like you're saying that message is static because I don't have the 6FL option in my car. Also then why is it only displayed on the DVD option and not on the TV and Camera options.

Ok, here is the first pics of the USB interface kit for ACM. Just got it.
No installation instructions with it though...

Edit: For the installation instructions please take a look here: http://forums.e60.net/index.php?s=&sho...st&p=588563

Looking forward to the install success on the older ACM module. However I never thought that BMW included instructions with kits. You need to get your dealer to download and give it to you from their EBA system. The ETK will tell you the number of the EBA document for this kit.

But someone said they have the instructions for this and was going to post it here.

Usually customers don't play at the little dealer .


But according to the european legislation a product without instructions is unsafe .

Yes but these are installation instructions that we are talking about and I don't believe BMW would classify this part as user installable.

Correct Bruce, (as per product specs .pdf document) you have to order the instructions from ASAP, so only a dealer with a valid ID can do this.
Maybe ACM/USB interface installation instructions have been added into the latest TIS version...

Nic, Why didn't you get the dealer to give you a print out of the instructions when you bought the part. As mentioned Retrofit instructions are not held in the TIS but in the EBA system.

Well because I bought it from Holland (in fact Andy545 did it for me) but I have to go one of the very next days to a friendly local dealer in order to request and get the instructions ...we'll see, I hope it'll take 1-2 days for the instructions to be sent from ASAP

Guys, a while ago someone posted these instructions on the forum and I grabbed a copy.

Hope it helps you out Nick!
