Ooh that. Yeah I love that thing. The weirdest thing to me was growing up in my dad's 85 380 SE. That fuel read 1/1 for full, 1/2, and 0/1. So weird.

Question Does the 08 Nav have a night mode?

:dunno: I've looked through all the menus and the manual and can't find it. Can anyone with an 08 confirm that our Nav didn't have a night mode and that it only came after the LCI? If it does have...

Hey there, I'm putting the alcantara one on my '08 tomorrow. Dealer quoted me about an hour to do it, so for that piece of mind, I'm paying for it. I think if you go to the Bimmian site and look at...
