CIC Retrofit DIY
• BMW E90 CIC Retrofit D...
Great video, it's very nice to see someone actually detail everything in an understandable way (was debating between this or getting an android unit but this def helped with my decision) my only question or request would be for a video where you code in a backup camera with the CIC system pls
Thanks for the comment, but I find backup cameras to be overrated. I think the parking sensors along with the rear view mirror and shoulder checking to be more than sufficient 👌
@@bmwdiy I wish I had parking sensors ;-;
I wote for a camera 👌
Not gonna lie this is exactly what I was looking for, I have a cic with combox in the boot but no option for bluetooth or telephone on my car so I hope I can get it working with coding
DId you get it working?
@@TolaKtv i actually did yes, only had to run 2 extra wires from the mic in front to the combox
Great video, I have the same in my e90. Just takes the car to the next level
This is an excellent video! Helped me install a combox in my 328i LCI and 135i coupe. it's also a great tutorial of understanding the basics for NCS Expert.
Hey bro, I have 2010 328xi e92, Can I upgrade and do I still need to code?
I finally got around to repinning my tcu to combox. For me I had to shave the skinny fin on the bottom left of the Bluetooth connector and it went in fine. One thing i noticed putting the bracket back in was that it was sparking as it rubbed against the frame of the car so I’ll have to address this soon idk how long it’s been like that but i didn’t get shocked
Got the Bluetooth working thanks so much man!
How can i use my iPhone as an iPod? I cant use it as an iPod with mulf 2 module. Will it come to screen with combox module? If i can use iPhone as an iPod, i wont to upgrade combox from mulf2. Thanks
You will be able to navigate the iPhone's music app and Spotify on the Idrive screen. Watch the last few minutes of the video.
Thanks for the super helpful video, already got the combox in and coded. Going to try enabling BMW Apps to get spotify integration this weekend. I hope its worth it :)
where you able to get it to work
@@mariorosales4321 yes
If you know how to manipulate the most junction box behind the right side passenger bolster, you actually don't need to buy the most termination loop.
Awesome video. Is it worth doing last part to get the apps? I don't think that works anymore because BMW got rid of it but I might be wrong.
I just used Spotify on my CIC through my iPhone 11 Pro on my ride home today. It's the only app you need and it's really nice to be able to navigate your Spotify music on the Idrive screen while your iPhone is charging :) There is also no glare, unlike the newer BMWs.
@@bmwdiy does it also work with youtube? Is it only for Apple devices or android too? :)
@@Mydlanek Android too, and RUclips will work through Bluetooth Audio
Really nice work right here! But Spotify only works when connected via USB and only iPhone. There is no way to acces this with my Samsung, right?
Nope... I've tried various Android versions on various brands of phones and BMW apps will not work with any of them! A solution to this is buy a cheap beat up iphone on ebay & use your Android device as a hotspot to connect it to. It will absolutely work. I used an old ipod 5 for a couple years using this method & it worked fine. I would suggest nothing older than an iPhone 6S at this point due to on-going updates & speed.
damn amazing video !!! thank you, I would like to ask you if I already have Bluetooth on my e93 2009 what do I need to do to can connect sound via Bluetooth
Do everything in this video. My E93 also came with Bluetooth from factory but it was only for phone calls. Bluetooth Audio first appeared on 2011 models.
@@bmwdiy same, only for phones, so I must change that blue tooth with one from 2011-13
Dude. You are really good. Could you somehow show us how you do it in a F-Series? I have a F10 model 2010 and I don't have Combox. It's so annoying!
Hey bro I did the CIC retrofit thanks to you👍, my bmw doesnt have usb in the armrest but I kinda want it, do I need anything to put it in?
Just got a combox too will be installing it later
A really long cable like the one in the link below. It connects to the blue or black port on the Combox. It’s a lot of work to bring it to the armrest. I would just leave it in the trunk and a connect a USB stick with all your music to it. You also need to add $6FL to the vehicle order when coding the Combox which is the option code for USB audio.

@@bmwdiy thanks man! I was super surprised when I got the price on the combox at a local parts yard for $11! I’ll be going back because i forgot to get these nice leather wrapped sun visors to replace my fabric ones. I might just buy the cable though and leave it it that back like you said, too much work to pull it off another car. Thanks again though its been too long with my faulty CCC unit!
Hell yeah. No need to cut the dashboard for this.
Great video!
I Purchased a E60 LCI of 12/2009 with the CIC iDrive (Professional NAV) not sure it has Bt audio from factory. Those steps look quite complex to do on own
Did you figure it out?
@@TolaKtvdid you do it also? 😅 I have cic, phone option, but my Bluetooth it’s not enables.. anyways it won’t play music from phone
@@hypebeast5686 No, I considered upgrading it since my Maulf 2 went out. But I found a new one for $50, which solved my issue. Would I do this upgrade if I knew how to do it myself easily? Yes, it is only CAD 200. But again, you can get a whole Android screen for CIC for about 350 CAD XD, so yeah
@@TolaKtv I will do the upgrade, it’s around the same as the Android option, but I prefer stock. Thanks for answering
@@hypebeast5686 Let us all know how it went! This is an awesome upgrade
What armrest port are you using mine only has aux -2007 bmw 335i e92 with CCC and phone bluetooth but aux for media and dvd nav
No glovebox usb or aux but with glovebox flashlight
Aux in centre console no usb
I waiting for a long time to watch your combox installation video.
Thanks you very much
But my car didn't come with the TCU is it can be install the combox ? If yes, what option parts I need to install and where to buy it ?
Many thanks
Does your car have Bluetooth for calling? Does it have the USB in the armrest?
@@bmwdiy Thanks for your reply, My car have USB in the armrest and no bluetooth option for calling. So, I don't know what I need for this retrofit.

Great video💯💯
Great video, gives me ta lot of confidence to attempt this now that I have re-played it a good few times already!
But I do have a couple of questions on the dialogue used in a couple of small parts of the vid if you wouldnt mind clearing up please...
Firstly, at 16:19 to 16:24 after adding the codes and clicking OK you say "you go back right here..." and you click (presumably) a button but the camera doesnt capture where your mouse pointer has clicked. Having not used NCSExpert yet and will be nervously following your steps; could you let me know what happens in that very short sequence please? Does something happen after you click OK that brings you back to the "Get Coded" page?
Secondly, at 23:12 through to 23:20 you say "you wanna restart the CIC - you can do an sg codieren...." and the camera pans up to the CIC display and you continue with "and now if you go into cd/multimedia...." and you continue to explain how to launch Spotify. Is there a step missed there? What does "doing an sg codieren" do?! Are you doing something unseen at this point?
Coming from the UK I am probably misinterpretting the Canadian tones in your voice, so if you could maybe just help me understand what it is your were doing during those moments in the video, it would just settle my nerves a little bit before going in for my own attempt at this!
Thanks a bunch 🙂
any updates?
Not sure if you got it working but when he said go back, he simply click on the back button on the lower right side on ncs,
For your second point, sg_codieren is restarting you cic and applying the newly added vehicle order(or changes, not 100% sure how it works)
. To do it, open ncsexpert, select factory coding profile, click start, choose écu, cas, then go back (bottom right button), select ecu, choose CIC, then select job, choose SG_codieren, and then execute job.
You probably got it working but for anyone else wondering :)
Hi, I noticed you didn't change anything in the cic module such as activating certain settings from previously being inactive. Also, when do we need to code the vin onto the combox? Didn't see you doing that either... Thanks!
It worked without doing that. I simply coded the car's vehicle order to the Combox ECU at 18:05.
Hello! i Did a similar project, but at my house with a CIC MID (small CIC) and Combox. I coded everything but im a bit confused. Whats neccesary to activate spotify? (i will post a video on youtube to show it)
Are the coding steps the same for coding the combox for E60? Regards
Your video really helped. I did the combox install after following your CIC retrofit video. I installed a USB port into the centre console (car came with the Aux port already). But after coding the combox I can only get the phone to charge it will not connect. The car came only with the TCU. The combox I'm using has telematics but I didn't hook it up nor remove the telematics coding, which I'm wondering might be the reason the USB in the centre console doesn't work. Do you know if this could be the issue and which codes I'd have to remove from the Combox coding?
Did you solve the issue?
What if you dont have an mulf? Just a combox but want to cic swap?
hiya pal amazing video but i wish you showed us if bmw internet apps works ?
The internet apps were shut down in 2017. All you really need is Bluetooth Audio and Spotify while driving.
Why don't the signature check come back successful for me bro ? I can't pass that point.
I was stuck on this step too for about a week! I think what finally made it work is I went to SWT Functions and I clicked Activate Upgrade and then tried it. Tell me if that works.
do you have the part number for the USB extension cable adding length to the centre console USB port cable to combox? You mentioned a link in your video but I don't see it. thanks.
rfsupplier.com/hsd-cable-assembly-b-code-straight-jack-to-b-code-straight-pulg-120cm_p0941.html
as an FYI there are a couple options.
First off you do not need that cable. He installed the combox with the MOST port + 54 pin facing towards the front of the car and the USB + antenna connectors facing the rear. The combox fits both ways. You can just rotate it 180 degrees from what he did and install it it with the antenna ports and the USB port facing the front of the car and the MOST port + 54 pin facing the rear. This saves the need for the USB extension cable. But this will only work if you use a harness (like he did) for the wiring. If you repin your old harness, then those cables wont reach.
The second option you have is to buy a universal 4 pole (535 DACAR) fakra z male to fakra z female. FAKRA Z is the universal plug and fits into any FAKRA terminal. You just need to make sure you are buying the correct cable, it is called a 4 core because it has 4 wires and is known as a DACAR 535. Easy way to think about it is FAKRA = the connector type (like ethernet) DACAR = the cable type (like CAT 6)
@@angelsolis7277thanks for the clarification and tip regarding flipping the combox 180. I don't know if I need the MOST diagnostic loop as my car only had the TCU installed. I bought one just in case.
@@angelsolis7277 On the E93, if you flip the Combox the other way, then you won't be able to easily access the Blue USB connection in case you want a second USB port. I am curious, how long does it take for the album art to load if you flip the Combox the other way like you suggest? It loads fine with Spotify, but if you are playing music directly from the iPhone's music app it can take up to 14 seconds to load the album art. It only does this with the iPhone. With a USB stick, the album art loads quickly. On the E60, I found the solution to this is to bypass the USB hub and connect the armrest USB port directly to the Combox. It is easy to do this on the E60 since the USB hub is located right beside the TCU unit, but where is it on the E90? Have you been able to bypass it? I am wondering if it is the USB extension cable or the USB hub that is causing the bottleneck?
Im about to do this for my 2009 E60 530xi can I use this exact combox or do I need one that says Version: EU on it since my car is from germany?
Hi man, my car come with cic profissional but not have usb on armrest only aux audio port I just have usb inside glovebox.. but I can retrofit like what you do in this video with bmw parts and add retrofit armrest usb port ? Sorry my English! Thanks for this amazing video! 🙏🏻
It is difficult to retrofit the armrest USB port since you have to remove the center console and rear seat, an easier solution is to just buy this cable to connect to the blue or black port on the combox so you can have the USB port in the trunk www.amazon.ca/Qiilu-Switch-Socket-Harness-Adapter/dp/B071FB4L6Y/ref=mp_s_a_1_5?crid=2UV8IIQYE56O1&keywords=usb+aux+socket+switch&qid=1648992366&sprefix=usb+aux+socket+switch%2Caps%2C191&sr=8-5
@@bmwdiy Thanks 🙏🏻
@@bmwdiy I have same situation, is is necessary to have this usb? If I would only use bluetooth feature? thanks
@@Mydlanek It is not necessary, but it is useful since you can connect 512gb USB stick and have album art and navigate through your music much better than the hard drive in the CIC. Of course you can just have Bluetooth Audio if you want.
Hi amazing video and because of it I were able to code my 1 series e87, I did everything in the video and the SOS lamp is still on
Hey mate, I have a 2010 e92 with Bluetooth calling and armrest usb and glovebox. Do you think I still need the connectors cables or my exiting should be same? Would u be able to provide the standard tool downloads as well. Cheers
You will need all the parts I mention in the video. Your TCU unit in the trunk will be the same as what I had before. All the part numbers and links to the software you will need are in the description. Good luck!
Unfortunately standard tools no longer available 😬
Hey thanks for the tutorial, would you happen to know how to get the my bmw app to work? Seems like bmw removed connected drive .
The connected drive app is gone, but Spotify still works as well as Audible, Amazon Music, and M-lap timer
Hello, every time I look for the 9 257 154-01 module, the ones that I found, the plug is white and not black as you mention on you video... is there a differences?
Hey. Great video btw. Can i have a help for e90 LCI 2010 which has no tcu but has Mulf2 like u had before u replaced. Unfortunately no bluetooth option available on the sceen. So i coded using ncs expert and ncs dummy to show telephone and bluetooth options but still my samsung cant find the car bluetooth. Maybe my mulf2 does not support BT(v2010/01)? Can somene give me a suggestion how to check it?
Is bmw connected app required for spotify? Or just phone plugged into usb? Im in trouble becouse i cant find working bmw connected app so im not sure if its maybe different problem
You don't need bmw connected app. After you do the coding in the video, just plug in iPhone to armrest usb and load Spotify app on iPhone.
@@bmwdiy thanks now its working but only with my iphone 8. It didnt work with galaxy s22. Its only for ios?

Hi mate Isit possible to add bluetooth audi to a 2006 bmw e90 330i with original screen system
You first need to retrofit the CIC Idrive, ruclips.net/video/AhwvlACXag8/видео.html
How to code the startup message from the CIC at start up. Also when I did my retrofit on my 135i the SOS light came on so Ill need that coded also.
It's 2022 - Can someone confirm what features are available still on these comboxes. Can you still interact with BMW services? The required BMW app also doesn't exist in the iOS app store anymore etc
The Spotify, Audible, and M lap timer apps all work fine with the latest iPhones, iOS, and android. You don’t need the connected drive app, it is not required. Spotify is by far the most useful app that you can get with the Combox. You don’t really need CarPlay once you have this setup. Keep in mind, if you choose the MMI android units for CarPlay, the sound quality will be through AUX which is far interior to the USB audio and Bluetooth audio that you get via the Combox MOST connection.

Great video! I noticed that you left 2 fakra cables unplugged. What are those for? I am looking to upgrade to combox as well. My car came out of factory with mulf2 and tcu(no usb). I already found the parts on a crashed 2011 e91(that one has a double fakra plugged in the pink/black connector)
Those 2 fakra cables were provisions for a cellular antenna connection if you got the mobile phone option in the armrest which I think was only available in Europe. As you can see, those connections are present on the Combox and are meant to connect the Combox to a cellular network via its built in IMEI number and SIM card so you can use the internet apps on the Idrive. You would have to pay BMW monthly for this service back in 2011. However, it was much more practical to use data streaming via Bluetooth via your iPhone which the Combox also offered but sadly BMW has shut all of this down in 2017. In reality, Bluetooth Audio and Spotify are all you really need while driving and any other internet app can wait until you park the car but then it would be more practical to just load your internet apps on your actual iPhone to save your car's battery.
If you don't have the USB port in the armrest that's ok since you can just order this fakra cable and USB port from amazon and connect it to the blue port on the Combox. Then you can just connect a large USB stick with all your music and album art to it and leave it in the trunk and then bring new music to your car through Bluetooth Audio.

Hey Bro, awesome video, I have bluetooth telephone function, But I haven't USB port at armrest.
Is it easy to upgrade armrest USB port?
Did you ever figure it out
does this work on e82's?? (128i sport)
Yes, because the e82 was built until the 2013 model year and the combox was introduced as an option for the 2011 model year for all models that had the navigation option (CIC IDrive)
And what is the FA/VO to get combox in a bmw e60 2005?
It's a very nice, useful video. good luck to you. But I couldn't understand how you activate spotify. Are you using a separate connection cable for this? Can you write if you are available? Right here..thanks for everything.
Hi, thanks for the comment. No, there is no separate cable, you use the same K+DCAN cable that goes in the OBD2 port. Just follow the instructions at 18:55. The links to the software are in the description. To get Spotify, you need to apply the FSC codes (which you would have normally had to buy from the dealer, but with the patcher file it removes the restriction so you can apply your own). After you apply the patch like I show you, you have to use FSTool to apply the FSC code for BMW Apps (which includes Spotify). Just go through it slowly step by step like I show in the video. You can see at 21:38 the code for BMW Apps is 009C0001.fsc. You can also use this process to activate navigation if you have a retrofitted CIC (the file is 00170001.fsc), and for voice control (00190001.fsc), and for free maps updates via USB in the glovebox (001B0001.fsc).

Was ist really Plug and Play Sadly you didnt Show how you connected the conversion i was just trying to fit mine and it Doesnt fit the 2 white stripes dont allow it from the oem plug
That's what happened to me as well. What I did was cut both sides of the black adaptor down with a razor so that the white stripes can slide in all the way. Make sure you don't damage the pins when doing this. The only function this adaptor has is for the microphone for the voice control and Bluetooth calling. I think there should be a better supplier that offers a more compatible adaptor where you don't have to cut anything.

Due to recent legal letters/actions we are no longer offering BMW Standard Tools or SP-Datens packages/downloads.
The Mega links were taken down by Mega in relation to these legal letters/actions. We had no control over them being removed as our Mega account that was responsible for the links was also permanently banned from the platform.
Please do not ask us where to find the package(s) or ask us questions about it. We simply can't and won't answer them.
As everyone knows, it was never our software to distribute, we were not the developers of it, we always just provided it and kept it up for the community as we always felt it was our responsibility to make it easily accessible to people who wanted/needed it and without charging people for it.
Thank you, BimmerGeeks Team
I want to get files from a site but I think this service no longer exists. Is there anyone who has downloaded files that can send them to me or process them on Mega and I can get them from Mega?
For some reason the song title and artists do not show up
For Spotify or Bluetooth?
@@bmwdiy on bluetooth
@@bmwdiy haven't been able to get the fcs to work
which iphone work with cic?
All of them, but you need the Combox too.
@@bmwdiy i heard that only iphone 4 work with it. I need to buy one mabye iphone 5 is cheap
@@ryszard6687 You heard wrong. Watch the last few minutes of the video and you can see me using iPhone 7 Plus with Spotify no problem. I am now using iPhone 11 with this setup no problem. I just plug my iPhone into the USB armrest port and Spotify menu will appear on Idrive screen. Bluetooth audio will work with any phone. You only need iPhone 4/4s if you want video to show from the iPhone on the Idrive screen, but you need to install an additional cable for that.
@@bmwdiy thats cool i want to buy iphone and keep it in armrest only to play music thanks for info
