CCC to CiC Upgrade
So I have been trying to sell a bunch of parts I bought with the intent to upgrade my CCC to CiC unit. Unfortunately I had a few unexpected repairs and some upgrades come up so I need the money.
There has been little interest so at this point I'm considering just doing the upgrade anyway. But I have a couple of questions: 1) My CCC is a Top-HIFI system, are all CiC head units Top-HIFI compatible (i'd rather not lose sound quality or speakers) 2) Will I be able to use this Aliexpress USB/AUX connector instead of the OEM BMW USB cable that plugs into the unit? 3) Where's a good place to buy that pink connector that connects the head unit to the display? |

DO NOT BUY AFTERMARKET HSD FARKA CABLES I get all my HSD wires from here: https://www.trademotion.com/partloca...?siteid=214320 The CIC is compatible with any audio system, in any E9X. All you need to do is code it properly. |

Thanks, all of this information is just sort of spattered all around the forum and unfortunately there is no clearly written sticky that captures everything.

got any favourite tool for re-pinning? Ideally something on amazon? Or will a set of precision screwdrivers do just fine?
