Well, I am one of those people you are looking for. After some struggles with me finding and installing the right connections on my car, and than getting it to do everything but have sound, it is up and running and working flawlessly!! I do love it and feel like my 15 yr old E53 is just like a current modern car! As far as not working initially, Ted was amazing and helped me diagnose that my MID was coded for using DSP and I had to buy a small cable to connect the BB to my DSP connection on my amp. Ted updated the software remotely for me and couldn't have been more accommodating. I havn't given him the feedback yet, but to use a non NAV/MID unit with the BB needs some tutorials. There is a guy named Ryan who seems to have partnered with Ted. He has an M5 page on youtube. He has done a video on how to make everything work on a E46 non nav radio. So, after some minor teething issues, I love the thing. Still waiting on my cable to connect for the phone. Ted says that is coming in the next couple of weeks. Given the current world situation, not sure if Ted will be making more of these, but if so, I would highly recommend getting one.
