What are my options? E90, Hifi, no BT, no changer wiring

yatzee · 07-31-2013, 02:25 PM

I've got a 335d with the Hifi sound system, but no bluetooth and it's not prewired for a CD Changer.

I want to add a way to connect my iphone, and perferably a way to have bluetooth also.

I was looking at the mObridge option, but it needs CD Changer wiring, which according to the build sheet, this vehicle doesn't have.

The local dealer has quoted me $350 + 2 hrs of install to install an iPod kit, but the reviews are been mixed, and i'm not clear if it'll even charge my iPhone 4s.

Anyone have any ideas?

Please contact forum vendor BimmerTech for the Bluetooth/USB (MULF) OEM retrofit kit details and pricing.

I've emailed them through their site, but I didn't see anything in the store

There is this if you can get one and figure out how to do it.
Which involves getting the new radio and coding into and old car.

This is easiest and works out cheaper than other.
I have few of these units and all of the buyers are happy.

I imagine coding is the big issue with older cars

Easiest thing bud.
Exception is
-fitting the cable to 6fl socket in the central storage compartment. I tend to remove all of that to do proper job.
- coding can sometime be pain in the bum.

They will answer your email.

They can offer the MULF OEM retrofit kit or the OEM HU with built-in BT/USB -your price will include any coding required.
