Who has done this?

ZuerstBMW · 07-11-2006, 01:54 AM

No one on here, I dont think. Too expensive.

RichP · 07-14-2006, 08:49 AM

to do so, you need to replace the radio area, entire dash, support frame below it. Its quite a job (ive looked into it in detail)

Japanese has done it!

but the looks...

JJP · 07-19-2006, 09:58 PM

Can some say if it is possible to do the retrofit. If possible how much would it be. I am very interested in doing the retrofit.

all the time and money that you spend on this retrofit would not be worth it...IMO just trade in your car for one w/ Nav if you want it that bad

This guy is the only one who has been fool enough to attempt it. Word is that he failed miserably.

Seriously, the cost of this misguided project would be off the charts. If you're really intent on glorifying your driving experience with iDrive, you'd be best off selling/trading the car and buying one equipped from the factory.

that looks utterly retarded, what's the point of sticking another hump/dome/tent on the dash, when the screen is OUTSIDE the hump/dome/tent
