Thank you!! |
sorry, its long gone.
Not a task for the beginner coder. Requires ESYS and access to FSC enabling codes.
I would recommend at this point getting an ID6 NBT2 EVO with Wireless CarPlay given we are on iDrive 8 at this point, units should be easy and cheap to come by. Make sure you get the 4GB RAM one.
I would recommend sb2002 over at NAM forum (north american motoring). This is the MINI forum. Steve is very reliable and trustworthy, and should be able to sell you a unit coded and fully plug and play to your setup and promptly get it to your door in a few days after payment.
I honestly have no idea of the prices these things are going for these days. A quick eBay search yielded the following unit for $850 which has the blue GPS connector, which means you don't also need to have an ATM module retrofitted as well!
