Thanks for the information guys!

I have an 2007 BMW 550i 6 speed and I've read through the pages, but couldn't find a direct answer. From my research here is what i gathered.

1. In the earlier pages, I read that people are dremeling something? What is that referring to? Is the navifly units not a direct fit for the 8.8 CCC professional?
-I believe the new versions are perfect fit

2. Will the 2 button CCC idrive controller be sufficient for this?
-Still unsure about this

3. Being a 6speed manual, I read that we have to create a connection (12v) somewhere to trigger it in R or does this https://www.amazon.com/COROTC-Compat...ct_top?ie=UTF8 camera not require it based on the 12v to 3v?
- A relay most likely is needed to not have flicker etc. I have a pre-lci and some users say the reverse light is good enough.

4. Does the Carplay USB Adapter charge the iphone as well? https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...=ANVW61FB1ZGIJ
Carplay USB adapters DO NOT offer a good charge which is why todd used https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 to have a powered hub. does anybody have an alternative as the product is discontinued and can't find a similar one.

5. Does the airplay transmit audio? I read somewhere it must connect via bluetooth?
Still unsure

Thanks guys!
