Audio+OBC menu setup, shown as the photos. Any difference?

The weather in Beijing China is fine these days, and a little cold.

Mine is totally different. Dosn't show the day of the week, Not sure what your mail icon next to the time is, blue is not a screen color option,no television mode.

Just confirming this mod
Just another confirmation that I was able to add this aux input (from the instructions in this post) to a 2003 BMW X5 3.0i with Business CD radio.

I used this to enable a Bluetooth handsfree system with stereo audio streaming.

That's good to hear, because I'm gathering the parts to do this too. The only question I have is with the capacitor -

On the BMW schematic, the capacitor looks like it's rated at 0.22 Farads, whereas the OP used a 0.22 micro Farad capacitor. I know 0.22 F seems a bit high, so is that just another typo on the schematic? Or is it some special notation with capacitors that only electrical engineers use?

He doesn't have navigation. That is the menu system driven by the video module.
