air freshener

hey guys I recently bought my first g30, and its very well equipped, but the one item that I wish I had ordered with it was the ambient air package.. so.
Is there a retrofit kit out there to plumb into the glove box to give me this option or am I relegated to buying the 30 buck bmw vent fragrance dispenser!!

I don't have the ambient air package on my car, but every review i've ever seen said it's not worth it. That said, there is a way to retrofit it, but it's a ton of work.

Here's a link to a retrofit guide from this forum: https://g30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1711269

Obviously, YMMV

The vent one actually doesn't look bad and works very well.

I have the same exact BMW air freshener mounted like in the pic above.

However, the scent sticks don't seem to last long...

If anyone needs a new air freshener, this was a game changer for me. Just spray carpets once a week and there is nothing to hide or see.
