I received these question via PM and I though it would be nice to share my answer because maybe other would be interested.

Do you mind if I ask few questions;
1- What is the production month and date of your car? I have been told that on pre-2012 cars, navigation is activated via most loop and that comes from ZGW.
2- Do you mind me asking how much it cost?
3- Any function which is not working?
4- Lastly why did not you go for NBT?

Hope you do not mind answering these questions.

Thanks,
Sam

1- 2011 April I believe
2- I bought the headunit, 10.2" screen, 2015 map update, FSC coding for voice and navigation all for 1000$ USD shipped to my home + 30$ for GPS antenna and extension. Total cost 1030$ installed since I did it my-self!
3-Currently the only thing that do not work is the arrow in the instrument cluster since it need to be coded in the car via ENET cable but this can be done easily or can pay someone to do it for cheap.
4- Used NBT were more expensive and I was not fully sure it would be as plug and play and if I could have the FSC code to active it...

I am very happy how everything turned out, the look of 10.2 screen, functionnalities of CIC, trouble free installation with precoded (FSC) and obviouly cheap cost!

Hope this helps
