First, you must've noticed the difference: the thread I referenced referred to an official update. "You always get as much as you've paid" - not too always in fact... But the data size mentioned appears to confirm.

Second, bimmercoders promise "a detailed Instructions guide". Not too helpful? Nor their customer service? Well, let's look at the handbook then. It says (page 165) it's Business navigation system (the regular size iDrive screen) that is updated via glove box USB. The Professional navigation (you seem to indicate it's what you have in a neighbour thread) expects a DVD medium!
Thanks for doing all these, I really appreciate. yeah the size difference is significant !!! well I got that "supplier" from some forum somewhere but was little cheaper than others
any way I can't say their service is bad, they provided me with a detailed instruction except that didn't work or was not for my car. Customer service is not bad as-well, they replied when-ever I asked a question, they tried to figure-out why it is not working and finally upon my discomfort they issued the refund(still waiting to receive). The only issue which is a big one is they didn't know what head unit do I have and what version should I get...

now I have to buy again and have do it via DVD? Takes a L O T of time isn't it?
