After reading this thread and all that is involved in retrofitting, I have determined it would be easier to trade the car and get one with Comfort Access installed.

For some of us, time is money, and this would be a VERY costly project for me... Good luck, OP.

So I need to run the wire through the seal tumbler in the trunk to plug it in the CA antenna attached to the rear bumper. Well the plug is big and doesn't go through the seal tumbler, does anyone knows how to remove the wires from the plug so I can run them through and then re-attach them to the plug. I will post pic for illustration
Thanks

He would do it for around $250 includes shipping and needs a week to build it. He is in Romania just FYI

How did you feed the premade CA harness through the dash? Its a tight squeeze over the steering column to feed cables with front CA antenna plugs intact. |

First pic shows at right side the gray clip to remove the blue part, then slide the white part also using a small flat screwdriver (clip shown in the first pic center one). I don't know for the grommets probably following the pins when you 'll remove them after pushing the clip connector (pic 2 bottom) only one clip (none on the other side). Good luck !

hi Ramez and all the guys here
i am happy to see this thread and to know that i was able to take part of it even if i am half way around the world. i saw in the previous pages that you were discussing on how to install it, also how to make the soft close mod or how to get the CA keys for your cars from BMW. As i shared the information with Ramez and he can share it with you, i can help you with all these things and also any other retrofits for e92/e93, just feel free to ask. regarding the CA wiring harness, i can do a better price for sure if i can have more then 1 harness to manufacture. it takes times for me and unfortunately as probable all here i work full time job, so i my only free time is weekend, most of it doing different retrofits on cars (mine and other's) best regards from Romania Last edited by dumitru.o; 04-24-2016 at 10:43 AM.. |

Hello, just a small question: I am wondering how you can power the door motor through the X256 and X257 doors connectors as they don’t provide a slot for that. Only the 2 pins 31 & 32 have the size but used for the motor window and only powered by the switch and inverted if you are shutting or opening the window.

dumitru. We talked before if you can certainly work a better deal on the harness im down!.
There is no way I could be pre-wired for this already? what would be a quick way for me to check, do't lose anything by checking. |

I'm still sad that this is not standard on a $50,000 car from 2011!
When you could get $5,000 2011 Chevy Aveo that has this feature standard!

I don't think you are prewired. I have a 2009 and it aint. If wanna check I guess see if you have anything plugged in pin1 of the antenna diversity module located in the rear brake light at the rear windshield
