Bluetooth retrofit; Need European Source

6to · #1 07-17-2006, 10:22 PM

I'm looking to purchase a Bluetooth retrofit kit for my 2006 3.0d X5; does anyone out there know about a source I can get this from within Europe? I'd like to avoid shipping from the U.S. since that'll mean import tariffs.

Thanx in advance to anyone that can help.

If the parts are all of EU manufacture, wouldn't that avoid customs duties? The shipper needs to declare "EU Manufactured parts returning to EU"...just a guess- I use this to get USA mfg parts back to the US without import issues all the time. The new ULF module is made by Visteon in Spain... they are available by part number in Spain from BMW ... 435 euros. Add the other BMW parts (harness, tray, antenna, etc) and you have the 'kit' no?
