Smile Rear Diffuser With Comfort Access

Hi everyone,

I have a 2014 535i M Sport with Comfort Access. I'd like to replace my stock M Sport diffuser with an aftermarket carbon fiber one with quad tips. Does anyone know how the comfort access affects the install?

Thank you in advance!

Why would Comfort Access have anything to do with installing a rear diffuser? Entirely unrelated.

you can use your foot to open the trunk if you have comfort access. From my understanding if you change out the diffuser you may loose that ability. and bushway I haven't heard of any unfortunately.

I'm running a carbon fiber diffuser and my comfort access doesn't work that well anymore. I set it off by accident when I'm under the car but it rarely picks up my foot anymore. I haven't investigated at all so it may be easy to remedy, but if you want to just swap it on be ready to lose that feature.

My friend changed the diffuser on his car (F31) and it still works. Should not be any difference to a F10?
