There are 2 major types of standard headunit (i.e. no-nav) fitted to the F30 - one with built-in BT hardware and one without. If u order standard BT (i.e. 6NH) then the headunit fitted to ur car will have BT hardware built-in. If u order with enhanced BT/BMW Assist (6NK/6NL) then the headunit doesn't have built-in BT hardware (this option combination is not available in USA, not sure abt CDN). It's not clear for the latter case whether it's simply BT hardware disabled within the HU or it's totally absent, but the part numbers for the standard HU is different if u have 6NH compared to 6NK/NL.
So if u want to install combox to standard HU u don't need to install 609 as well, but at the very least u have to source a EU/ROW spec 6NK/NL-compatible standard headunit, & that means u'll lose ur satradio.
