You have both.

What circuit are you asking about? IDrive? That’s KCAN 2 in 2014.

What are the exact colors of the wires and stripes going to the iDrive controller?

The better question would be if you actually have a touch controller.

Because I'm retrofitting the NBT

and if i was to go with your method would it mean purchasing that y splitter cable you sent and this harness instead?

https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?m...2F191882588826

And yes I've got a touch controller

and if i was to use that method the only thing that won't work is the touch features, that's all right

You stated you were trying to add touch. You don’t think that was an major detail you should have stated upfront?

Would that make a huge difference? Wiring should be the same
