What are FSC codes and how'd you go about getting them?

Yeh, when I bought this car I hired a Vauxhall Adam to drive from the North East to Swindon to collect it and that had CarPlay as standard. Typical pricing behaviour from BMW sadly!
As for the FSC codes, they are injected into the car via USB stick under the arm rest and they enable the CarPlay, they are VIN specific. No coding should be required. The Bimmercode app wont be able to help you here sadly.
I should have also mentioned that if the car doesnt have EBT from factory (option 6NW) then you most likely will not have the wifi antenna and would need to install that to the back of the HU - mine didnt! I will post the BMW part number for anyone who needs it.
CarPlay will only work on NBT EVO units (either ID5 or ID6)
