I coded AUX-in yesterday to the MASK.
Today, I'll be removing the iDrive legal disclaimer.

Done so far (since the car was purchased ~3 weeks ago):
Wash/wax
Interior cleaning/leather care
Fixed diversity module by cleaning corrosion
Fixed passenger cupholder

Wow! How hard is it to pull all that stuff out?

I've bought a rear camera kit that displays the image on the NAV screen by attaching to a wire harness there somewhere, but have been afraid to tackle it.

Any links to DIY instructions?

To be honest isn't that hard...
There's bunch of info how to take apart dashboard or center console.
Check this video:

Thanks. Not sure why your link doesn't work.

When I search for that phrase, I found this. It's odd that this forum doesn't let you link videos, by the way. Only links and images.

I might be bugging you for one, if that's cool.
