 @Henn28, ddid you retain thee steering wheel functions and time, date,, etc ssettings on the MIL?  Which harnesses and adapters did you use?
 |  You will need the Ibus app (with license) and USB interface to be able to retain those functions. Pretty easy to install, and most Android units now provide plug in access for them.  Best $65 you'll spend on the E53.
