Do I need Combox Media or Combox Telematics?

khurmit · 03-09-2015, 07:58 AM

Hi All - hoping you can help me with a little conundrum:

2007 BMW E92 335i with TCU (BMW Everest E60 ECE) BMW Assist & CIC Upgrade

I want to retrofit a Combox, and am not concerned about losing Assist. Do I still need Combox Telematics, or will I get away with using Combox Media?

If anyone knows anything specific RE changing the pinouts / coding for fitting combox media to 2007 TCU/Assist equipped vehicle I'd be most grateful - can't seem to get the Combox Media to work at the moment, hence the Q.

(Posted in coding section also, as applies to both areas)

Either unit will work. BMW assist isn't transferable so media it is..

I don't remember the exact pin outs to this but I recall only having to use about 7 of like 20 wire from the socket pin outs. I'll see if I can grab a pin out diagram for ya.
