All X5s are built in the US, but the US spec'd X5s that are sold here don't have this feature. We can roll down with the key remote but not up with the remote. That is why we need this product to do it.


So, what's the price on this bad boy? I'm interested.

****edit**** clicked the link and got the price... Decent price I guess but I got a few more things ahead of it on the ever growing list of purchases.

[ashrafkh]

i will not say that am sure... but i will check with the dealer soon - i was planing to ask this more than a year ago- but this time i will do it and ask...then decide .. will be back soon...

by the way... did anyone in this forum bought it.. just advice or article to be posted on how to be installed...

Thanks.

The module will tap into your CD Changer wiring in the cargo area - 3 connections is all that's needed.

There was a guy at Bimmerfest doing this same stuff via a laptop for 1/4 the price. Still a cool product though for those not willing to make the drive.

The European buyers have it so much better than we do.

this means its programmable as i said... but its a dealer problem that refuse to do it afraid from any consequences
