I have a X1 F48 early 2017 model and has a anolog cluster and tiny digital screen which display temps,mpg etc. This is where I want to enable the MPH speedo as also mentioned by above post that it can be done.

Also found this on YT which shows exactly whats i was looking for.

Unless you can tell me I can use an old esys with old bootloader and the folder won't be encrypted, then only option is to buy a BimmerUtility license. (I also plan to install oem reverse cam, so will need esys to program I assume)

Appreciate your help.
My two cents: it's much easier using the BimmerCode App (https://bimmercode.app/), plus you can easily code other features without messing around with eSYS.

The full version costs ~45 bucks, and you will need a Bluetooth OBD adapter or an ENET cable + RJ45 phone adapter. I use the last one, which is faster and safer.
