jochen 4 Report post Posted November 22, 2008 (edited) Tips for interested parties: The radio module that dogballs has for sale has the Facra antenna connector An short antenna adapter cable, available from BMW, is required to connect the DIN-antenna connector, as fitted to the old-gen radios used in Jap-import BMWs up to Sept 2001, when they changed from Old-Gen to New-Gen radios. The antenna adapter cable part number is: 61.12-6 913 955 New Gen Radio Antenna Adapter Current USD price for the part is $33.76, plus taxes. (From experience, BMW NZ tends to be 2x or 3x the US Retail Price List !!) The BM54 radio was manufacturered in May 2007, so is quite a new model. it was made by Becker, who are regarded as the best automotive sound system manufacturers, and they supply all top-end cars. Becker is the best! This unit is a special backwards-compatible model (BM54 BACK) and is therefore perfect for use with the Jap import cars An excellent improvement / upgrade for anyone with a Jap-import E46, E38, E39, or X5 manufactured before the radios were changed from old-gen to new-gen (Sept 2001) Edited November 22, 2008 by jochen Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
