Retro fit items ?

Hi All

I have taken delivery of my new 520d and was wondering if any of the following can be retro fitted by BMW.

1. Comfort Access
2. Powered Boot lid
3. Soft Close Doors
4. Surround view cameras
5. Side view cameras

I didnt spec these items when i ordered the car, but know i have it i can see a real benefit to having them

Thanks

everything is possible but you'd be looking at over £5k for that. None of those are "approved" retrofit items as far as I know (according to realOem) so there isn't a kit of everything so the dealer would have to make them up. Fitting all the soft-close motors and reflashing the LKM would be a big undertaking and I suspect something that not many dealers would be keen to do.

It might be possible, but I guess it would cost you a fortune, so I wouldn't be surprised if the would be better to sell it and order a new one with extra options.

I was looking for a high spec F11 second hand but couldn't find one. So eventually ordered a new one and on the grounds that I couldn't really add them later ended up specifying rather a lot of options. All those mentioned above plus Head up display, Active cruise control and night vision. Just don't tell the missus how much the options cost!!

If you in London, talk to the guys at Cartronics near Brooklands. They did retrofit of dab and BT on my 3 series estate.

All good, ask for Mark. Not cheapest but it you get what you pay for IMHO with retrofits into newer cars these days.
