My Ride: 530i 6 speed Manual
![Default](https://5series.net/forums/images/icons/icon1.gif)
Hi guys,
I recently bought a BMW 530i from 2004 with CIC retro fitted in the car.
The kit was from bimmer-tech.com i could see in the manuals there followed.
But the problem is, its not coded for the car, so the navigation dosent work.
Well, i have read about 1000 pages or so about the CIC retro fit, and lost my mind somewhere in all the information.
The things i basically wants to work is the navigation and playing music from my iphone and samsung galaxy.
But, can it really be true there is no AUX entrance somewhere? The only thing i got is an USB entrance in the glove storage room.
As far as i know, my option would be a combox then, and stream the music via bluetooth ( i use spotify for all my music)?
I could live with the CIC PnP Activation Module if there where a AUX entrance and a male - male jack connector, and then a updated 2013 map, is that even possible?
Hope you guys can help me out a little bit - Thanks!![Smile](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/smile.gif)

i know its a hefty read....but all the information you seek is really within that large thread....literally the answer to all your questions.
i would email bimmer retrofit as they sell activation of navigation and some other coding packages as well.
the 6FL option will allow you to have usb connectivity and an aux input....the combox is who different story with tons of features.
id just go through that thread at length it has all the info you need. i would only be referencing whats in there. ive done this mod a few times now, both for myself and at the shop its really awesome and can make ur 2004 seem like a 2013
