Pre Coded CIC
Has anybody ever bought a pre scripted CIC unit to replace their CCC? There's a guy on the bay who sells them with good feedback, apparently plug and play as it's all coded to your vehicle beforehand.

I've just had one fitted. Gave the seller my VIN and he rebuilt the VO into the CIC unit. Absolutely everything ported across seamlessly - even the bluetooth code from the old head unit. Even though the CIC until wasn't originally from an m3, the coding has worked so that the images that come up (like parking sensors and service requirements) come up as an M3.
Took him about 8hours to code, apparently. They're dead easy to install too. |

Yeah I ordered it off a guy on the m3cutters forum.
No new fascias needed. I de died to keep my old idrive controller too so didn’t need to replace the centre console either. |

Well today I fitted my CIC, took around 2 1/2 hours all in. Some of the CCC plugs were a nightmare to pull out. Overall it's pretty straight forward.
The CIC works flawlessly and everything has ported over, I didn't even have to resync my phone for bluetooth. It's also kept my bmw online account so I get weather, news etc. Also has the 2018-2 maps. Really pleased and would highly recommend Ian for anyone wanting a CIC. The difference between this and CCC is night and day. Even the sound quality is better now. |
