Hey guys! I came across this and wonder what you think. Does it sound too good to believe it could be that easy?

Looks legit to me. All of these interfaces for the E6X/E9X are getting cheap now that the cars are so old.

Looks pretty good to me. I almost did something like this in my 2005 e46. Everyone kept telling me the Chinese no-name brands were a gyp.

I would venture to guess that most of the electronics you use every day come from Chinese brands you probably would not recognize.
