[@HQFacts]

You are truly a good soul! I wish for you that what you give out comes 100 times back to you! You deserve nothing less!🙏🏼👨🏻‍🔧💜.. THANK YOU!!🙏🏼

Man, how I admire what you do. It's fantastic. True pleasure.

[@ilkinemrullayev3222]

Wow, what a work. Man, you're mad

[@arniecabral]

Thank you for this video. I had a hard time trying to locate videos on how to recalibrate the KAFAS system.

[@gulo46]

Nice work Ace, can’t wait for your next project 💪

[@robyedumor8848]

Ur a mad man

[@Acelele320]

I will consider this as a complement 😁😂

[@robyedumor8848]

@@Acelele320 it is lol. You have amazing retrofits. Thanks to you i was able to retrofit the ambient lighting and puddle lighting on my f30.

[@robyedumor8848]

@@Acelele320 how much did this retrofit cost you?

[@Acelele320]

@@robyedumor8848 Well, it is little bit complicated, because new windshield paid my insurance, KAFAS2 ECU and KAFAS2 Camera is donated to me so I can make this video possible. So, out my pocket I paid for the new wiring harness + KAFAS2 camera cover (above the mirror) and that was 80€ + new SZL + New steering wheel + Some random parts But I sold my old SZL and steering wheel for the more-less same money that I paid for the new one. So, in total out my pocket I paid around 100-150€ Camera + ECU on eBay is around 150€ SZL with all options 150-200€ Steering wheel with all options 500 - 600€ KAFAS2 retrofit can be really cheap, but also really expensive. It depends for how much you can sell your old parts and is you windshield covered by insurance or not.

[@knulleriboy]

This is completely spot on! Although I own a F07 this video was very interesting. My car already has heated comfort seats with memory and I’m considering upgrading to ventilated one or ventilated and active. Do you know roughly how much works is needed for that?

[@3L3EN]

You will need ventilated/heated seats, replace them, change your climate control unit to one with with seat ventilation buttons, code it and thats done

[@albertz.9332]

Genius work as always, thank you sir (y) I don't know if economically it's worth it, but it's a pleasure to watch your video ! Any chance for a led headlight retrofit ?? :D Keep good work

[@Acelele320]

Thank you for your comment, appreciate it 👊 Can't guarantee for the LED Headlights, but LED Fog Lights and LED Tail Lights are comming soon 😁

[@albertz.9332]

@@Acelele320 I follow your "Art" from the forum f30, great work man ! No problem for the headlight, I aleardy saw that you have the led one not the halogen, so its maybe more complicate to found another car for the retrofit. For the fog and tail light I take it also ! :D

[@zh7205]

Nice work🎉

[@JPDenali]

What was the purpose of adding pins 9 and 11 behind the steering wheel?

How to verginize kafas 4?Is it possible with Esys?

[@ignaciotejado5560]

Hi! Impressive tutorial, I'm trying yo replicate same retrofit in my F10. Could you please indicate where did you purchase/get the FCW steering buttons replacement for the dummy buttons as shown in your video at 13:25?

[@Oockeshoek]

I already have FCW (Adaptive CC radar), HBA (FLA camera) + Adaptive LED, full option SZL (from BMW X3, which has LCI stalks and stalks remain in center), Full option steering wheel (with heating and vibro). Now I want to retrofit KAFAS2, just for LDW, which is a feature I absolutely hate, but I still want it 😂😭

[@googleriam]

Thanks so much, I have done.

[@lele_mento]

Ciao, ho già la kafas2 per high bean assistent e lettura segnali, puoi aiutarmi a orientarmi tra gli schermi per capire cosa implementare per avere il controllo di corsia e di collisione? Grazie

[@Acelele320]

Thanks 👍

[@mgpinobis]

Hi, I already have the BE and BF codes working. I added 8TH in VO and coded the HU-NBT2, DKombi and Kafas2 control units. Obviously the 7E code is not active, I see the circle with the three little glasses. To activate it with your procedure, do I have to upload all three of your codes, or is just the 7E one enough? Thank you. I forgot, I don't have ISTA installed on my PC, is it mandatory to deactivate the fake?

[@hidri86]

I have 520d luxury line 2015 and it has kafas camera. I’ve ordered the switch panel same as yours. Will it be plug and play with some coding or I need a lot more ?

[@nicolaimrkbrejnbjerg611]

Great video, used it for learning more about working around in esys with retrofits as im currently retrofitting Comfort Acces (322) in my F21. Do you have link for FSC repair kit and jan it be used for other fsc's?

[@adamthekid190]

Wow 👏

[@Rimlax123]

Hello, already did the same retrofit, just as You are mentioning in a video ,except, was unable to find SZL with high beam assistant. Friend helps me with coding part and he coded it before I installed updated SZL and buttons for crash and line assistant capabilities. Do You think it can be a reason why we now have errors on that?

[@nat7936]

Will this project be the same on a LCI f30 RHD? Thanks

[@dzooky]

In documentation you have Upgrade FSC than Write FSC but on video I can;t see that you press Write FSC, You was so fast or what? :D

[@petrosx9059]

Hi, Car already have camera for signs & auto beam, I only need collision assist not lane assist. Can i retrofit without steering wheel change? (F30 2106)

[@RJ-ph2dt]

Hi. Thank you for your nice work. I want to change the headlight of my car from halogen to adaptive LED. It is F31 330D made in 2016 with driver assistance system. KAFA camera and front rader are installed. Is it possible, if I change the headlight unit and the steering column with coding to get the adaptive headlight function?

[@frispens8093]

Great video again. I followed your retrofit for foldable mirrors few months back and works like a charm. Question; I already have SLI (with KAFAS2) and M sport steering wheel. If I want to add LDW & FCW, I only need vibration module for my steering wheel + wiring harnas & driver assistance control unit ? Thanks!

[@Acelele320]

Hello. Yes that is correct, but you also need SZL (Steering column switch) that supports Driver Assistance System (5AD) + You need to inject new FSC codes for LDW and FCW which I already showed in the video how to do it.

[@aketaa_gaming8369]

hi i have a bmw f30 lci year 2016 originally equipped with blind spot detector and traffic sign reader but i don't have line assist do you know how to have this option thank you

[@hellasride2717]

Hi. Thanks for the very interesting video. Concerning your comment to change the ISTAGUI.exe.config file, I opened my file with Notepad++ and I see no section with "Custom setting for standalone". Should I add all this section to the file or just add the specific key "disableFakeFSCreject"? I use ISTA+

hy there!if i allready have kafas instald and i whant to retrofit kafas 2 with the 2 buttons what i will need extra?i have a 5a 02 2012

I'm confused how I could use FSC from another VIN on my car?

[@thepricylon]

And what if i have Kafas 1 from the factory. what do i need to do then?

[@xzh9122]

Good people live a safe life, I'm ready to add SAS and kafas2 modules on F49 BMW X1(Chinese version). Does the addition of SAS modules require additional coding? Do I need to find a new certificate? will be very appreciate it if i can receive your response.

Hello, i have error FSC not OK: INVALID_FSC_CREATION_DATE

[@freddyjimenez6328]

Thanks for sharing. How were you able to view the Kafas video feed during calibration with INSTA+? It looks like you used 70mai.

[@Acelele320]

Hi there. The video feed is recorded with dash cam (70mai) and later added when I was editing the video (i though it will he more interesting to have a real-time view of the calibration process) P.S You can't see what KAFAS sees, there is no such option or such program that allows you to see KAFAS video, even tho that would be great a idea to have a live video of the KAFAS on the navigation screen for example.

[@Rimlax123]

Also have another question. Because I'm unable find a correct SZL at the moment. If I mount camera, kafas ECU and do all the need wiring, except from connecting to SZL, I will be able to program emergency collision and road sign recognition? Also if the connection will be pluged into the extras button line, there will be no faults for lane departure ?

[@b00STR]

I haven’t done it yet but I’m guessing without the right SZL which also bring steering wheel vibration, you don’t have all the necessary stuff for it so it could potentially give errors

[@nathanb5840]

Are you still active? I would love to help with this.

[@googleriam]

Is there Code for activation SLI?

[@Electr086]

Thank! Great video! For high beam assistant (HBA), need to code option 5AC? оr not?

[@Acelele320]

Yes, you need to add 5AC to HBA and if you have non-adaptive headlights you also need to add 5AD (If you have adaptive headlights, then add just 5AC)

[@Electr086]

Kafas2 also works as high beam assistant? because as I can see, previous camera, which goes together with rear view mirror, is remowed.
