Fairly straight forward. It is easier than getting an "off-the-shelf" headunit as this one had custom connectors specific to the E90. You need to purchase the DAB dongle separate but other than that, everything else comes with it. As I've mentioned, the DAB signal with the glass mount aerial is shocking so will definitely need a better one. Alternatively, I would recommend using internet radio. I just have my phone wifi hotspot switched on as soon as I sit in my car, so when the headunit boots up, it connects automatically to my phone wifi. Therefore full internet access on the unit. Spotify, YouTube Music, Radioplayer all work extremely well and has sort of made DAB obsolete for me. I have a big enough data plan (16GB per month) to last me the month without issue.
