Hey Guys,

Here's that pic. I dont know if its actually lighted or just orange type reflectors or paint.

I was told that illuminated I-Drive knob is offered only for 7-series Individual due
to specific power feed. I am pretty sure I have seen pictures of the above for 5-series
too. I have made a search in our forum and recovered this thread.

It seems there was a picture of it found by Lomag but I cannot open it anymore.
Lomag, or anybody else! I would highly appreciate if you cud help me over there.

You can only get it if your car has BMW Individual in it. If your VIN is not registered at BMW Individual they will not sell you Individual parts.

Just an aside - you know how the controller resists turning when you reach the end of a menu? I was wondering if you forced the knob and turned past the resistance whether the controller would break. (Obviously i'm not going to try this, but i did give it a full turn beyond resistance before I really understood how to use the idrive when i first got the car). I hope i didnt mess it up!

Also, does the FTM come with all cars, or only with the sport pkg?

I asked the same question earlier and the response was that FTM comes on all cars.
