Thinking outside the box..

My 2010 e89 has the idrive satnav radio with built in hard drive.

I detest the junk FM radio pap, find the 50 or so stored cds tedious and wanted DAB so I can listen to my radio station of choice

Pondered an MMI box but at £400 decided it was too expensive

Found a solution for £50 in the form of a Pure Highway 600 DAB adapter. Aerial on the far side of the screen. Wires tucked out of sight and the gubbins plugged in under the armrest. Works a treat and sounds ok too.

Happy happy so far..

If DAB is your focus then it works for you!

Amazed DAB works for you as in none of my cars do I get a consistent reception, anywhere where I drive in the UK nor mainland Europe. I have up in that years ago and only use Spotify now.

We must live in a stable DAB area. Our two ‘day cars’ have good reception, I have DAB radios in two of my ‘classics’ too, only the Z was without. Now that’s potentially solved too.
