It will work with any newish BMW that has the MOST bus in it (two orange fibre optic cables that run around the car) which is everything with the BMW professional system and above (i.e. not basic BMW business radio's I'm afraid)

I have been fitting Kufatec kit into VAG cars for about 2 years now but this system for BMW has just been released so is relatively new to the market. I have supplied and fitted 5 units now with no problems.
The price is £345+vat fitted (£414.00incl)
I'm based in Manchester so can do this for you anywhere around that area but if you drop me a PM if you're not from around here I'll probably be able to recommend a decent fitter in your area.
I have uploaded 2 YouTube video's of the kit working with both BMW Professional radio and iDrive so you can have a look at the kit in operation.
I'm a much better installer than movie director so please forgive my ameturish presentation.
Cheers.......... Rick

Just wanted to say I totally agree that £50 is nothing compared to the hassle and time it takes to fit these things. I'm trying to fit a 'simple' mki9000 parrot and its driving me insane!!!!!!!!!
