Hello!
Few weeks ago I've decided to do a CIC retrofit, but on my own. First step was to sell my CCC navigation (display, controller and module). Here is how things look currently:



By the way the car's model is e60 520d (2007, pre-facelit).

Here is what I bought thus far:

- CIC module
- display (CID)
- idrive controller
- CID CAN/power connector
- cable
- usb port & cable
- LCI climate control panel

Soon I'll get the panel located below the controller (central console I guess it is called, not sure).

I know there a lot of DYIs, youtube clipc etc... however I wanted to open my own thread. Basically I am a newbie, but willing to learn how to do this retrofit. Even if I mess up I shall go to my dealer to solve the problem for me.

So, I have several questions for now.

Would you please advise me on which guide to follow on how to assemble everything and also I do need information about the coding - what cable and software would I need.

I will post the progress here by updating the initial post. Hope to get some help from the community here!

 

do you get the emulator as well?
