My concerns are:
  • finding all the necessary parts
  • stripping the dash down/replacing without rattles and broken bits
  • making sure all of the Mdrive functionality is retained

Does anyone have any experience doing this? Does the M button still work without iDrive? Are the steering, MDM, and traction control options still available?

I think partswise I need: dash, headunit, headunit mounting bracket, climate control trim, 6MT center console trim. The rest I could use some input on.

Cheers!
Have you made any progress on this. I am looking to do the same!
