Z4 Radio replacement

My radio has died and I need to replace it (so the garage suggests)

I've been giving the part number 651293550500 but really cant find this online anywhere. Does it really need to be this exact part number?

The radio from dealers is very pricey @£455+vat!
 
£75 0n Ebay? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-Z4-E85-E86-2-5i-1-Buisness-CD-Stereo-Radio-CD-Player-/322094248646?hash=item4afe5032c6:g:VywAAOSwiYFXJzop

Sorry I forgot to mentions my Z4 is an E89 2009 (59) version

Had a look on ebay and did find one but garage was adamant that the part number had to be what they stipulated.

They have been kind enough to let me look round for the alternative to new part from BMW just so I can save a bit of money
 
How about going for an aftermarket one, if you spend around £100 you should easily find something that sounds better than the standard one, and if you go for this kit http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-Z4-E89-2009-Car-Stereo-Single-Din-Fascia-Panel-Steering-Wheel-Kit-CTKBM33-/272044408176?hash=item3f571c3d70:g:ARwAAOSwsFpWRQiU you can keep your steering wheel controlls

I'm pretty sure mine is an amplified system therefore this would not work but good shout! :thumbsup:
 
Just tried that parts number on realoem and its saying it don't exist :? - http://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/select

Found it right here: http://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/part?id=LM32-EUR-09-2009-E89-BMW-Z4_23i&mg=65&sg=05&diagId=65_1474&q=65129350500

Little bit confusing to as what it means? Does it suggest that I can use an alternative?

Think it means it is the alternative to what you've got but your right very confusing :)

just means you need to buy a new amp.

basically you can spend £450+ fitting and get the same sound or £550+ fitting and get a much better sound.

I'm currently upgrading my DSP carver system, in fact its booked in tomorrow for the full job to be done.
