ISO: BM54 Radio Module

Does anyone have a BM54 radio module from an E53? I'm about to sell my 2002 4.6is and the only problem with it is a dead radio module. I'd really like to be able to swap it out before listing it.

Isn't BM54 European version?
I believe you'll need BM53 for north america.

I've had the module out several times and it's definitely a BM54. Are the BM53 and BM54 interchangeable? Perhaps a previous owner swapped it.

Can you post a pic? https://xoutpost.com/electronics/nav...4-vs-bm53.html

I have a BM53 around, but wont have access to it until the 30th.

If your car has a BM54 that is VERY odd.

UPDATE:
So I guess I'm losing my mind. I was 1000% certain my X5 has a BM54 radio module. I even have photos of the damn thing. Well, I pulled it out yesterday and, lo and behold, it's a BM53. So, I actually need a BM53 module!
