Coding M Logo, M Font and Changing Car Color and Trim Line

Hey Guys,

I have a 2021 X5 sDrive 40i (xline, Arctic Grey). When I purchased it, the car in the Instrument Cluster and Navigation screen was Jatoba Brown however I know it should match the color of my car. I went in and coded the proper color and changed the vehicle from xLine to Msport. I also changed the cluster to M Font from standard and that allowed me to add the M logo and other logos that are ordinary unavailable with stock cluster. Before and after photos are below with coding instructions. Enjoy. Also tested this on my 2020 530e and 2021 540i and was successful.

M Font and Logo

Expert Mode
3001 KI_Parameter

LOGO

I was really hoping this worked in my 2017, especially the M-sport trim for the images.

No joy though. The settings must be a little different so I couldn't find them.

Would be nice to be able to place the M sport kit on the car in iDrive on a 2017.

Can you code the shadow-line trim as well?
