Hi everyone
I have been using my USB cable n combination with NCS expert to modify setting. Now i want to take the step to some more advance options
So I have decided to buy a OPS (orange head) or an OPPS (Yellow head).

I assume a lot of members have already bought an OPS.

On ebay there the price vary a lot. I see OPS from China and Hong Kong.
So I am looking for tips and recommendations which OPS to buy.

So help me out guys

If it`s for an E60 then OPS (orange head) is the one you need, beware the Chinese clones, they are rip offs of the the seamans original and there are some very nasty horror stories on the net of bricked modules due the unit failing during programming.

Its for E60. So the orange head is what I'll be aiming for.
I want to change the spoken navigational language of the CCC with this device.
