Hi, I did find that post - thank you.
Regarding it though i'm still a bit unsure.
Option 1:
Buying a combox (and new stereo unit to support combox)
- My reasearch indicates I need an 'F20 Media Combox' - I spoke with bimmertech who said the media combox alone would be US$899, however on eBay i see used ones for ~£160. Is there a difference in these units other than new/old?
When i asked bimmertech they were somewhat vague in their response ("I don't know if your Combox will fit. We tested only ours.") I would have thought it's purely based on item number?
How can I ascertain if I need a new head unit or not? I think I need one with fibre optics in order to use the combox, is there a simple method to find out? Or am i going to have to remove the head unit from the dashboard?
Option 2:
Buying a NBT stereo unit.
I found an 'NBT install service' however this stated the car must be built after July 2012, mine was built April 2012 according to the vin checker - is there some significant change after July 2012?
Option 3:
Buying a NBT evo stereo unit.
I presume this would have the same question as option 2?
Thank again in advance.
