I did sp daten update by video on youtube. So i cant say how to do that now. Maybe you can simply update your sp daten with e89 data just for this job. And after that you can go back to e60 data again. Or find video on youtube.

One more question, since both TEL+MULFH are taken out of the car, shouldnt we delete those two modules from VO? Should we add whatever module is for combox to VO $6VC??

I would like to get rid of that SOS error as it bugs me everytime I get into the car

In ssd VO yes +6VC and all your vo options, and +TELD. But i think you will get rid off SOS fault when you will code Kombi with your orginal VO +TELD.
in my case i just had TEL. No mulf
In real your car vo you cant add 6vc, because combox was never factory built in e6x

I guess you mean -TELD rather than +TELD, correct?

Ok, I spent couple of hours last night to get the SSD just right for my VO options and finally was able to get it to work after much back & forth, but worked only when I added *PR96 at the end that is present in your list. I have no idea what that option is...

Got everything working wrt to combox in cic, phone works. The only thing that needs to be activated is application 2D using fstools. At the moment it shows as

When I check that FSC status in FSCTools, it shows as


I am guessing I should do the fstools thing again for 2D application only, correct? I am a bit hesitant to do this worrying if I might mess up anything else that is working perfectly now.

Huge KUDOs for Bmwpower530 for continued push & encouragement & also putting up with all my questions and kirvedx for his detailed coding steps. Looking forward to get 2D active and should be done with this retrofit.
Have to get ready to start with ACC2 retrofit, just got all the needed parts for it last weekend from a scrapyard. But that it on another thread and I hope that should go more smoothly than this.

I think PR96 is model code. Dont know what is 2D fsc, but i think in my CIC is the same. I will look in photos later, i should have it. After AAC2 retrofit, you should go for Night Vision, its always better to have both boobs than one in your front bumper
I only had ACC2 from factory, so i did Night vision retrofit, now i sleep tight

as per Shawn in this post, 2D is 'Road Map North America Premium (CIC)'... strange

For apps its is 9C and is shown as activated in my FSC status, probably not sure how to use it properly though

I just downlaoded BMW connected drive app and entered my VIN and it said not compatible and try using USB/BT connection instead... understandably since I am not with the car at the moment.. WIll see how it goes later in the evening.

I havent come across any car with night vision that is being parted out. If you come across one, I am happy to buy night vision related parts.

For future reference, here is the complete list of BMW infotainment codes

For bmw apps you have to use compatible phone. Phone list i think is under cic >settings> software update, i use old iphone 4s, i only use web radio.
I think dont mess with fsc if your navigation is working now and you can update it. Latest maps is 2022/02 if i good remember. Later i will take some photos from my car .
I can drop contact for Night vision retrofit set, but shipping from eu to us can start from 100 i think +emulator shipping from Romania or Ukraine.
Mine FSC looks same:

One more thing that I remember, Satelite radio is always stuck at 'Acquiring', but never sees a lock. I know CC has an external SAT tuner (correct???) while CIC has it built-in
