009C - BMW Apps

Front buttons usually come with the CIC. But I don't know much about small screen versions so check out all the pictures you can find on ebay. And add a combox plug set to your shopping list. You will remove the pins from your TCU and or MULF and insert them into the new combox plug.

As an alternative to the combox, if you have usb in the armrest, you can simply use a tune2air. It will get you bluetooth music with steering wheel controls. https://www.amazon.com/Bovee-WMA3000.../dp/B0131P6P5E



Do you know if on E70 all I have to do is repin the plug or I need to extend the wiring as well? I believe on the E9x it needs to be extended.

I think I actually have this plug somewhere. It's used on cluster panels and on a bunch of other stuff on E46 and E39.


I have a USB in the glovebox. Combox sounds like a better option. A bit more expensive, but more OEM and less dangling wires.

There was no CarPlay option on the E70. What people are proposing here is to install the NBT system instead of CIC. First X5 with NBT was the F15, which had the CarPlay option.
