BangleBox... I have access to the BMW WebTIS which is updated almost every day...

I think BMW would have a problem if all the info came out into the public domain.... ? Anything you particularly want to know?

I am interested in the bluetooth retrofit for my US Jan. o4 production date 545. The dealers in the Washington DC and Naryland area are still unaware of the retroffit for ant MY 04 E60.

Bad news: there is no retrofit for you at this time. Production dates 3/04 onward can get a software upgrade and functionality. Have to wait and see if BMW steps up to the plate and offers a solution here (so far, poor form on BMW's part for sure).

But on a happier note, I'd likely trade bluetooth functionality for this ///M sports pack... !!!

I noticed yesterday that part numbers 12 & 13 were removeable, and wondered why. Looking at the diagram, it looks like they are replaced by parts 14 & 15 when you have active cruise control.
