Hey there! I saw this rig running around. There are surprisingly few X5s here and Titanium is even more rare. Nice to see you E53 looking like "itself" again. :). Almost identical to mine with the exception of the flared fenders.

Regardless of the UI controls I'm having, I've learned how to use it successfully and still swear by this amazing stereo/hands free phone calling.
I first installed factory mic p/n ending in 338, but ppl told me it was too quiet, but clear.
But I also had factory mic ending in p/n 762 and swapped that in last night and ppl said I'm louder now (well, for a car hands free phone call, that is) So your mileage may vary

I still need to get my IKE working right. I don't think my MID has a BC button, though.

Also! Mic Gain is controllable via software, just not via the MID UI just yet :/

Thanks!

Regarding the 6 pin connector on the board required for TCU emulation, where might I get the 6 pin socket housing?

If you have a BlueBus, email me and I will send one free of charge

Cool deal, thanks man. I’ll shoot you an email now.

Hi Ted,

I sent you an interest request for purchase via the website. I will need the 26 pin SES Jumper...can I get that from you? If not, please point me and I'll get that done too. I'm so very excited to add this to my E53!!!!

Howdy!

Your best bet is to buy one from ECS Tuning (they have 41 left, as of today): https://www.ecstuning.com/b-bluebus-.../bluebus1~blu/

They will be able to ship before I can because I am sold out of allocations for the current product run.

You will need to buy the SES from me, though! https://www.bluebus.dev/orders/checkout

Thanks!

Hey Ted,

I ordered today from ECS Tuning. They said they don't have 41 in stock so I'll be hanging out until July 10 for it to ship. Just an FYI. Bummer but I'm good. :). I ordered the SES jumper from you but please check your PayPal as it was acting weird. I see the hold on the card but it kept looping back to "Preauthorize" over and over again. If there's an issue please let me know at the PayPal email and we can deal with it quickly. Thanks again!

Howdy,

Sorry, they don't have ANY in stock, but they have 41 pre-allocations left. Once those are used up, they won't be shipping any units until ~September.

On PayPal: I see the problem -- you did not click "Add Telephone Adapter" to select the SES adapter, so it was trying to sell you _just_ shipping.
