Chasis No : CE60027

Thanks in advanced.
This is a very easy add-on job. Parts you need are:

1. Nav computer - Mk3 or Mk4. Try to get a Mk4

2. Nav computer bracket plus the 2 or 3 nuts/bolts to bolt it into place

3. GPS antenna + cable, generic antennas work fine, or you can get the original BMW antenna. Antenna commector is standard SMB.

4. Nav add-on cable loom. Available on ebay.

5. New CD-changer + nav trim panel, or just cut a rectangluar hole in your existing trim panel.

The add-on is very simple and highly recommended.

Of course, you'll also need the local map disc for your area. Malaysia is so small I believe the map comes on CD.
