Bluetooth on the X5

So we have owned our X5 for a year this week.... and since day 1 Agata has been asking me about setting up a bluetooth system, getting a bluetooth ear piece, getting a cradle to hook her phone up to the car... nag nag nag nag nag!

Well until today nothing has been done, yeah I kinda looked into a few options, had Seth check into OEM cradle options etc., but no serious progress.

Well today I went to have the car inspected (since it expired in JUNE!) and while looking for the registration for BJ's dad I looked through the owners manual for the first time. Lo and behold there was the white glossy sheet with all the Bluetooth info and passkey

I'm so retarded... I called Seth and he told me how to pair, and it immediately recognized my phone. Unfortunately the BT Passkey was wrong. Long story short, I ended up having to check the BT ULF for the correct passkey. Just my luck, it was covered by some large plastic molding and I had to jury rig a solution to get the nuts off since I have about 0 tools.

So a year and a day later we now have Bluetooth

Some pics are below, enjoy!

The car had it's own tools, who knew :P


Vise grips/needle nos pliers didn't work


This is what I was trying to get off. It was harder because they were in the bottom of small holes.


I found this socket, and it seemed to fit, but I had no ratchet


Hmmmmmmmm


GHETTO FABULOUS


Success!!!!!!!!
