Tony thanks for all the info so far and to everyone else who had replied its been great help

My car just has the standard Mask unit aswel
I tried a trial fit on the unit the other day without any coding the controller didnt move in the menus but selection when pressing down and directions up down left right worked but not the spinning to go through the menus

If its a simple thing to code the controller to high that will make things a alot easier for me

Il pm you my email add for the cable diagrams

what year is your bmw?


Does the voice guidance come
From the speakers?

The original GPS antenna is going to be connected through the sharkfin. Its a blue connector hanging in the CCC space, if its there. Otherwise, the gps antenna just connects to the TCU unit in the back. You can reroute everything (search for directions).

It is much much easier to get an aftermarket antenna. Works perfectly. I sold one sometime back, so look it up if you want to get an idea of what it looks like.

In case you decide to try your old controller (preferred!) go into your CAPPL module and look for ZBE. You'll want to change it from high to low or low_with_slopes - some CCC's won't respond to just 'low'

There was not any special coding for the controller in my case either but I have heard that some need it. Voice guidance works great. I cannot use the voice commands. This will be a future project to see if this can be brought back into action. So in my case Bluetooth for the phone and my voice input doesn't work.. I can live with this! Fan cable is simple. PM me for instructions.
hi iam new to the site, and i would like to do a nav/sat retrofit in my 2004 545i,

Just like my post that you copied, my install was simple. You will need a fan wire harness. And the ac trim panel and the panel that is below it. Or at least this is how it is on the LCI version. Most likely you won't know what your getting in the CCC until you install it. I think i was pretty lucky so didn't need immediate coding. A good friend help with that a few weeks later. The fan harness is not available in the USA, maybe Canada? Not sure. It is available in Europe though.
