TriX5 is on a distinguished road
Took the plunge and ordered the BlueBus for my 2003 e53. On my 2003 I have factory nav with DSP and the CD changer in the back. There is no ULF or TCU in the back and no option for phone in the menu on the nav screen. I'm assuming there will be no microphone in the front console either. Also, IIRC my '03 does not have the coaxial connection between the CD and the DSP. It is more than 10 years back that I did a nav retrofit on the 4.8iS I owned back then and at the time I also knew exactly what was in my '03 but those memories are vague now.

My question for anyone who has installed their BlueBus, any clues on which cable/harness I'd have to obtain to install it? I'd like hands free calling to be available as my kids will mostly drive this car going forward. From the posts above it looks like there is more to that than just plugging the CD changer plugs into the BlueBus?
