Nick aka “CIC Retrofit” will answer any questions within the comments here or you can email him :) Thanks guys for watching!

[@missaneido7417]

Yes, can't agree more. Nick is a true expert and having watched him work on my car, he is real good.

[@JoseGarcia-ht8bi]

nick does not answer im trying to pick up 2 kits

[@DethDragon13]

No answer from Nick... Been a couple days now

[@axelbriatte2446]

BMW Fanatic hello, where can i buy the connectic that you show in the video?

[@franciscomartinez-jl7rr]

How can get a hold of nick

[@LivingInDallasTexas]

Love your videos. Im a new n54 owner and you have helped me out immensely. Thanks for doing what you do.

[@BusyRaf]

This is possibly the best / most detailed review of how to handle this installation. All of your videos are outstanding. I’m relying on your CIC upgrade vid and this one to perform a retrofit of my own. I’ve emailed Nick to make arrangements, just haven’t heard back yet. Great content as always!

[@Streamlined955]

Whoa! I’ve been waiting for this video for years!!! Thanks!!!!

[@miller330i]

Nick is the best coder I have worked with! Highly recommended!

[@daboss9889]

does he still do coding for this retrofit?

[@mariorosales4321]

@@daboss9889 I thought it. I've been trying to co tact nick for month no reply

[@daboss9889]

@@mariorosales4321 I found his website and it basically says that because of supply chain issues he won’t be accepting any more allocations

[@justinc8888]

Underrated channel

[@maxnix346]

Dealer gave me a choice of updated ComBox or cash, so I had it updated. Nice tutorial to see what they had to do.

[@TheWrenchLab]

Solid tutorial, like always!👏 That was pretty straightforward and not as difficult as I suspected. 👍

[@djTorchLive]

I'd love to see a more detailed explanation on the coding.

[@bobhenry247]

Was waiting for the coding section, the most important part and there was nothing. Please remove the word "coding" from the descriptor.

[@RomulosGarage]

Completely agree

[@keithospencer]

I was here for the coding as well but it’s like the 11 herbs and spices

[@bmylifesamovie6915]

😂😂😂

[@banjaxedautos3799]

So frustrating. Right!

[@MH-6]

Thanks for the info I just emailed Nick. Just checking that he's still providing comboxes (2011 750i F01)

[@dmytrosylyvonchyk8460]

Thanks for video. Please tell more about what program you used to program it?

[@acsbimmer]

Great video! So no need to hook up the MULF cable? What was the cable called that extended the USB?

[@Faustastico7]

Can you do a video on how to fix crackling and buzzing noise coming out of my speakers? It happens when I floor it and I play loud music, still haven’t figured it out, thanks.

[@TheBlackSheepprojects]

hello i wonder if you could help me plz.... i have bought a bmw e92 with a retro fitted combox. the blue tooth and the aux does not work. i suspect it has not been coded. how do I get a hold of nick ? thanks

[@HeavyComponent]

New subscriber here and I think I watched 50% of your videos so far back to back! I got a few more to go. I love the car, but I watch it more for the N54 because I’m new to N54 (135i). Anyway, when I watch your DIY videos one thing I wish you do before you start is to show everything needed to get the job done. That way from the beginning of the video if I need to run out and go buy this or that I can prep the job. Just a suggestion you know. But thank you for the videos keep them coming.

[@djTorchLive]

Hi, great video. I have a 2013 e70 with only 2g. If I get the 4g upgrade will I need to code to get everything to function is will I need a computer to do the coding?

[@TheZeroRSX]

Hi Bro, awesome video, But my armrest haven’t USB port. Is it easy to upgrade?

[@hugomendoza5038]

Thanks for the video just purchased a 2011 e92 m3 with cic and center console usb but no bluetooth audio i need this kit can i get a link or who can i email about this

[@Streamlined955]

Nick - For those of us with F30 CIC systems which were made obsolete by the lapse of 2G, do we buy this same Combox kit?

[@42-BMW-M57]

Where can i buy Combox Adapter Adapter cable?

[@bashmaher8855]

[@billysoomro]

Hi, what's the part number of the combox that you installed?

[@42-BMW-M57]

Where can I buy cable(07:54)? or can I make the cable myself?

[@Elmefrio]

Hello! I have a 03/2011 325i with Cic and I drive. But nothing in the boot. Can I add the combox? I haven't no cable or anything in the trunk.

[@Linuxhax]

Hi, just wondering if you still have service since the impending 3G shutdown. Thank you

[@gaz4145]

Hi thanks for the upload, I am a little confused do you need to keep your phone plugged into the car to use Spotify ect? If so I don't see the point in the com box as you can plug in a Bluetooth adapter bovee ect and go hands free with steering wheel skip. Thanks in advance

[@benjaminscofield9318]

[@dickb2128]

I t would have been helpful if you explained what CIC is to those people who haven't a clue, such as me.

[@Xzizia92]

Car Information Computer. Released in 2008 until it was replaced in 2012 by NBT (Next Big Thing). Basically generations of car information/navigation/interface systems in the BMW cars 🙂

[@Xzizia92]

A big metal box behind the radio, under the navigation display

[@markblayney6338]

Wait I don’t get it, the combox adds Bluetooth audio, but you have to plug it in still to use ? Doesn’t that defeat the point of Bluetooth ?

[@bmwdiy]

I notice you didn't connect anything to the MULF blue plug, you left it hanging. Did you lose any functionality because of that? Does your AUX audio still work?

[@_jovian]

Did you ever find an answer to this? My aux isn’t working, it not grayed out but when you select it it won’t select. I opened up my trunk to find this hanging mulf plug and bypass loop

[@nathanc.4862]

Hey BMW Fanatic, I just bought a 2015 Z4 from Carvana and then found out my combox was deactivated in 2017 by BMW. I emailed the dealership to find out about getting the LTE combox installed and this is how they responded, is this accurate? "A bit of bad news I'm afraid... The previous owner actually elected to have the combox deactivated and receive a $200 voucher. This option unfortunately prevents the vehicle from having BMW Assist capability entirely. Sorry about that." Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!!

[@ram00sa00]

whats the part number ?

[@niksonwilson9849]

Hi You know Bmw X3 f25 type bluetooth module location or diagram

[@JamesWelbes]

will this also give me bluetooth audio streaming?

[@BMWFanatic]

Yep

[@DerHalbeEuro]

What does this combox even do? Can someone explain me? My Audio-Hifi systems makes strange white noise and almost never plays the music since 6 month. the salesman told me the problem comes from the combox. Because Radio and CD works, only USB and Bluetooth don't.

[@kamildobrzan3212]

Hi, I have E90 Lci cic navi professional with combox telematik BN2000. I can't streaming music by bluetooth. What can I do it?

Hey dear! Which program are you using for coding? where can i buy that obd2 cable for that program?

[@MrSpeedkg]

I have smaller display in my car but i dont have nothing in trunk area, that spots are empty. Is that fking normal?

Hello I tried to contact Nick without an answer. Do you know if he still sells this kits? Thanks!!

[@darthmalgus4446]

Daniboy - did u ever get one?

I think the real question is, “Do you guys make house-calls to Southern California?”. lol

You had CCC before this?

Yes, check his other video out when he did the conversion from ccc to cic
