Yeah, I figured as much. It's a shame to have all the hardware needed to do something really cool, but having it locked down to the point of making it virtually impossible to take advantage of it outside of what BMW allows.
I guess we should all be happy that it is even possible to upgrade a CCC car to a CIC one in the first place!
