Almost $600!
The link is a rear climate controller that is found in the F01/F02 7-series that have rear ventilated seats (two middle buttons), which I don't think was an option for an F10....so the @sshat asking $600 for that unit is only doing so because they think someone will pay.

Here is your favorite type....$70, and it comes with the rear connector..

I was discussing the control units for your contemplated rear ventilated seat project.

That said, I'm like 99% sure the actual brains of the control units are the same for non-heated, heated, and heated+cooled seats. It's just the button set that is different. You could, in theory, buy a basic control unit and then just buy BMW's button repair set that is applicable for your car. Haven't been able to verify this theory, however.

This is for screen and temperature sensors wiring, the other one is sensors inside air vents and light for knobs and 12V socket has its own wires. I don't know exact wiring, i was replacing my air vents and temp knobs recently as some kid probably kicked it with foot so i wa not bothered which wire goes where, just plug out and plug in. I bought a car with rear climate.

Searching for F10/F11 with 4 Zones, I have been finding that a lot have 11 actuators instead of 13.

With 13 i could only find one of endless weeks searching. - They are not expensive 50-100€, the transport is expensive +100€

This two are controlled by the top actuators. - 11 Actuators





M23 M22


But i can also find in TIS that F01 + F02 + F07 had M22 + M23 = 13 Actuators.

Confuse there are 2 versions of 4 Climate Zones?



The other point is
For F10/F11 LCI the Distribution housing, a/c unit, lower that supports the actuators is the following
Autom. climate control with 4-zone ctrl S4NBA=Yes
Distribution housing, a/c with preheater 1 03/2013 64119241199



The only Cars compatible are F06 Grand Coupe



If I try to buy a brand new Distribution housing with 4 Zones, it comes with support for 11 Actuators not 13.

But

If we look at the actuators needed


Maybe we can assemble 13 instead of 11 and all i need todo is adapt the wiring.

Why cant you buy the parts new from the bmw dealership?

1. You will need to use 8 of your own actuators, need a total of 13, but this is cheaper to buy if you buy separately, but it's less than $200 from eBay for the 1st 4 part numbers, bought as a complete assembly and included the correct wiring harness (above list does not include distribution box harness)

2. The last item, center console, can be modified by cutting out the plug plate, so you don't need to buy, but I purchased the center motor, center tray, rear vent, rear controller, and center console as a complete unit. You'll need to reuse your trim and arm rest from your vehicle

3. The list of items does not include the odd parts, like 10mm plastic trim nuts, tray inside center console, extra screws, and/or any plastic trim parts you break when doing this mod

4. If you get all the hardware installed, it won't work until you VO code for 4-zone '4NB'

Your biggest issue will be the wiring....w/o it being pre-fabricated (pulled from an OEM harness), then you'll need to be able to read 'newTIS.info' really well, and be able to crimp wires and assemble your own connectors.

Never took my whole interior out before, so the three full Saturday's required to pull everything out, was 2/3's learning...did it twice to troubleshoot codes, and it took only 4 hours to pull everything out except carpet (front seats, rear seats, center console, complete dashboard)

Good luck.

For these 4 parts, can you buy them new at the bmw dealership and install them?

- 64119290824 4-zone Distribution housing, upper (qty 1)
- 64119241198 4-zone Distribution housing, lower (qty 1)
- 64119166109 4-zone Distribution housing, temp sensor (+2 more required)
- 64118319037 4-zone Distribution housing, actuators (+5 more required)

Also, i cant seem to find Part # 64118319037 online, is that the right part number?

I was thinking about doing this but with new parts, do you know if the parts above come with the wiring harnesses needed?

Good catch....P/N 64118319037 should be 64119319037.

Typically most get the whole air distribution box from eBay with the wiring harness and all actuators (P/N 64118319037) in one assembly for a few hundred dollars.

But to answer your question, all BMW Part Numbers listed for this retrofit can be purchased directly from your BMW dealership.
