Non-iDrive Mini = EASY iDrive Mini = HARD Both can be done. After conversion, you have a standard system identical to a NZ-New mini NOTE: the Japanese radio in your Japanese Mini can also be reprogrammed to Euro mode, you do NOT need a band expander Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For Mercedes information, please ask the Mercedes specialists in the Mercedes forums. Every car manufacturer does things differently - a Mercedes is not a BMW, just like a Windows Smartphone is not an iPhone. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
