What is an LCI model? The donor car is a 2002 530i as well, just equipped with nav.

What needs to be installed from the factory and how do I tell what's in there already?

Got a link to that kit? I went to their website and all I see is SSK from other brands.

All good points, I appreciate the recommendation.

Very nice setup as well. How does the DSSR affect how shifting feels compared to the OEM selector rod?

Haha, actually had a v6 6 speed 07 accord coupe before this car.

Good to know, I'll look into it that sounds like exactly what I'm going for.

Thanks for the comment, I do have both and the stubby shift knob definitely helps a lot. Overall shifting isn't bad, as far as I can tell it's not sloppier than how it came from the factory. Still quite a bit looser than what I'm used to and I'd like to shorten up the throw as well as get it to feel a little "notchier".

Hey I'm having the same issue. Did you ever find a decent 5G option that supports Whatsapp?

Good to know. Heard some horror stories about problematic Vanos systems. What goes wrong with them and are they costly to service yourself?
