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

I know nothing about this other than what you see here.

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.

This looks like to be one of the best ways to upgrade the CCC without buying all new cic,and nbt hardware! Although you keep hittin that option button, you can kiss your budget good buy ! I'll take this into consideration.

I wonder how good the sound output will be compared to stock Logic-7 and hi-end options.

Did you ever buy one? I’d be curious to hear your thoughts on the outcome.
