True, you can, but don't expect all the OEM features to work with it without extra modules (MFSW and On-board computer).

Plus the OEM cd changer and/or phone system wont work either.

is it mostly about integrity of original BMW equipment or am I missing something about the features...?

just curious...what is your take?
Horses for courses mate, Personally I would not have after market system in as they just don't look right, they don't fit and you lose a load of OEM compatibility, but its your car and your money.

If you do go for AM, you will need the extended loom as you have OEM nav and all the connections are in the trunk, not up front like a normal car.
