NBT EVO retrofits seems expensive and in reality I did not feel that I needed to have ID4 or ID5, so I turned my attention to NBT touch. After looking at retrofit companies, it seemed like I would have to pay close to $700 USD just for that, while still retaining my CIC. And I wanted BMW apps and Sirius unlocked.

I managed to code Office and extended bluetooth, but still found the unit to be choppy. My car did not come with BMW apps, or extended bluetooth or XM Sirius or Office integration. While the CIC navigation in my car was functional, it was slow and I did not have 'all options' on it. THen everything should be up and running with the new CIC.My 2013 F30 was unfortunately built with CIC navigation as opposed to NBT, and I have been looking at upgrading it for quite a while. Default code the CIC module which should show up in NCS after changing the production date. Then you Fa-write the VO to CAS and FRM module. To do this you need to change the production date of the car. You need to change the VO (vehicle order) in order for NCS to see the retrofit CIC module. I did the coding for the retrofit myself!

I have been waiting to do this retrofit for awhile but the options out there were too costly, so I went ahead and bought bits and pieces from ebay and put the kit together myself to spend the least amount of money for this retrofit. The Center screen is also High definition compared to the older screen. Its so much nicer and the navigation is more advanced. I just retrofitted a CIC head unit into my 2007 E93 that came with the old outdated CCC head unit.
