Has anyone tried it and if so, is there any further work required to get it to work properly (with Nav, Bluetooth and CD changer) and display AUX mode option etc?
Always mindful that things that are a bit cheaper, it's often for a reason. Having said that, BMW's prices are certainly on the inflated side.

I contacted him direct and he gave me a link, so I was 100% sure it was correct. Mine looks the same as the link you posted, but I know there are some resistors etc so you want to get the right one.Phil-E30 said:samZ4M said:Fruity is the man to go to, if in doubt email him and he'll show you the way.

Cheers Sam, I think I'll grab that then. Was the item you bought the same as the one in the link I posted?
The issue with the volume baffles me, there isn't really a good reason as to why this should be affected. It seems like some people reckon there's an issue and other's don't. Very weird.
