The owner has a F10 and he open up the truck and show me the genuine parts one by one.....The guy is crazy, he bought a brand new F10 and investigate all retrofit like CIC, tailgate and bluetooth. He new project is Head Up Display.....He bough all parts now and try to retrofit.
I read about this guy. He is not in HK so nothing for us.

But your car is not in Taiwan

You can either fly the guy over to retrofit for you or fly your car over there.

Maybe his point is do able. But no one in HK will go through the trouble to do it including BMWHK.

Hi Samho2,

It is quite easy to use, you will see your phonebook, recent call record & call in record in your idrive panel and your control panel as well. I use iPhone and all Chinese can be correctly displayed. Moreover, I can also play my song of my iPhone through bluetooth connection.
This is worth to install the bluetooth especially at this discount price.
Have you received the discount letter? I got it 6 months after I received my car as all the additional parts installation are tax free.
