  1. So where do I get one? Can't seem to find one apart from some guy on eBay, who's obviously on crack and wants £1200!!
  2. Because I'm gussing she uses the other switch to lower it? Lol
  3. hi all. new to the club but i do also run a local club called Secta North East. We have weekly meets, Monthly big meets and go to a few of the larger car shows around the country. Search facebook for Secta Staff for info on weekly meets or if anyones interested and doesnt have facebook i can post details up in here as and when people need them. :)
  4. where are the buttons when the dvd unit is fitted facory then?
  5. i do have same as above (but with manual controls) but its the same layout. what do i need then?
  6. the way im looking at it to fit the sat nav i would need to remove or relocate the stop/start button? and move the heater controls down to the next din slot. as the dvd screen looks far too big to fit in a single din slot. anyone done this before? ill inbox the seller and find out what he suggests about the bottom buttons.
  7. Thanks everyone. Hopefully ill be able to help out with some guides as I go along
  8. I found this, http://bit.ly/XuXQaI What you guys think? (No idea if the link will work lol)
  9. You maybe my new hero of the day if you do lol
  10. Suppose ill be keeping my eye out for a DVD unit and faisas then. Can imagine they don't come up very often though. Would a 3 series unit fit with the correct fascia?
  11. Ok so iv bought a 118D my first question is what is the difference regarding the engines between the 118d and 120d models? I'm assuming there mostly the same hardware wise and its mainly mapping where the increase is? Second question is what suggestions do you guys have for straight swop for standard CD player? Again I assume there was a high spec model with sat nav, iPod, ect? No doubt ill have more questions the more familiar I get with car.
  12. Thx daz. Couldn't help but notice a large void in 1 series how to guides!! :( very disappointing. Hopefully ill be able find some helpful posts soon
  13. Hi all. Just bought myself a 2009 1 series 118d. 27k miles so practically new. How ever it is a 'sport' so doesn't have too many toys. Would be very interested in upgrading the radio also possibly adding parking sensors and cruse control. Maybe more depending obviously on difficulty! Anyway links pointing me in the right direction would be very welcome and thanks for having me :) Phill
