Done some coding a while ago and I was able to enable WiFi in my car, I just couldn't connect to it because it kept asking about a password. Does that mean that I have the antenna already and I would only need to do some 'standard' coding and getting this special FSC code? |

I have a 2018 430i GC ordered it without EBT. I did this retrofit and it worked without having to install the WiFi antenna. I assume my car had the antenna to begin with.

How did you obtain this special FSC code? Was any manual work involved in the process or it was only about doing some extra coding? |

BMW are starting to make the Apple CarPlay a yearly subscription...

The only way a subscription makes sense is if you get new functionality, like Orifice 365.
This is a shit move from BMW, clearly they want a steady cash flow, however they will just get a lesser cash flow as people just say no. |

Agreed, BMW does not provide software updates on a regular basis (at least in the US) and I don't see any intent from them on changing this. Their CEO recently said that their goal is to maximize profits and this is a clear indication of that intent.

I spoke with Craig yesterday. Had a really good long conversation about getting this done and also fitting the Antenna and coding EBT. He definitely knows his stuff and sounds really knowledge. Mulling it over but mostly likely will get it done very soon
