My parts arrived today, so i retrofitted the CCC to CIC controller and new trim and install wheel spacers on to bring the wheels a bit closer to the guards.
Well worth the retrofit every thing works and looks a lot better than the old style controller very happy.

Do all the "shortcut" bottons ie phone, radio, etc work on the controller?

If so, I would be very interested in the same mod.

Yep all the short cuts work including the lights plug and play.
You need the top console trim m-sport ,controller and controller bracket

Your telling me. Every time I get a loan car, then climb back into my car, the CCC controller is just painful. I can handle the CCC system itself but not how it drives. Going from phone to radio to nav to ipod, etc just f***in' shits me.

Thanks for posting chappy.

Hey mate was thinking of doing the same to my e92. Is the glacier silver trim the same as the brushed aluminium trim? There are like 5 different aluminium trim sections to choose from!?

Also do all of the buttons on the new controller work straight off the bat, PnP? No coding or other parts involved? Cheers

Hi Chappy. Just saw this. Cheers for the breakdown. I am definitely going to get this done. I am quite happy with the CCC nav. Its the CCC controller that is hopeless.

Yes. Creme Beige does look awesome in the brochure. The carpet is just a little hard to live with on a day to day basis. I spend more time keeping the mats clean than on any other part of the car!! When its all clean though, it provides a nice contrast with the exterior.
