Anyone with NBT Evo retrofit experience or service?
Hello. I'm thinking about doing this retrofit but would like to see if anyone around here has done it before.
I'm asking to see if there are any experienced shops or someone that could help me out if I hit a snag. I'm in the Portland area. I know it seems like a waste of money to some, but I plan on keeping my car long term and would like to modernize the car a bit but still keep it OEM functionality.

I heard that musicar northwest can do it, but I messaged them about price and they never got back to me.
I very much want to do this as well, but dont want to fuck the car up in the process. |

There is also an issue with some cars experiencing echo with bluetooth voice calls. To remedy this, you have to find a compatible amplifier from an F series car and swap it. This adds like 500-600 bucks on top of the kit you already have to purchase. And there isn't any documentation as to which amp will work and how to wire it up. In the end, I bit the bullet and bought one of the apple car play boxes from one of those chinese companies and trying that out first. A lot less work to install and a huge price difference. I may still go with a retrofit later this year when I'm in the area of the Bimmer Retrofit shop.

I've never seen crystal clear documentation as to how to do the swap.
Probably going to run CIC until someone can document how to do this with crossing every t and dotting every 1. Too much is hearsay. |

To be fair. Bimmer Retrofit did provide good documentation on how to install everything. But you're right. There is a lot of tribal knowledge that is not shared in the documentation. The reason for the tribal knowledge is because each car is different install depending on what's equipped on the car.
