Hi all

Just picked up my 57 plate 116i sport today. Few things I want to add to it.

Firstly I want to convert to HID's. Not sure if car is CAN bus though???

Secondly I would like to add the bluetooth phone equipment to the car as I have the button on steering wheel but it does nothing. Is this possible?

Thanks.

Byron.

You'll need the BT module that resides in the boot with all the other AV modules...

Buy a HID kit which is error-free, that should do it ! ;)

As you've got a 57 plate, I'd first make sure if it's either a pre-FL or a FL model, as these apparently have a slightly different electronics setup for driving lights. HID for a pre-FL won't work with a FL model.

      Steering lock query

      Morning Mike Welcome to the Forum Sadly we do live in times where extra protection is needed The good old Stop Lock is an excellent visual deterent. Whether the investment in a ghost immobiliser as well is worth the money no one can say untill it is needed. Personally the Stop Lock would be my choice (I use one when we are away from home) Dave

      Morning Frank Welcome to the Forum Are you thinking of after market or BMW ? Also raises the question why ? If BMW then as long as it has the same functions and air bag connections I would think you could find one from other models. Try a search on www.realoem.com to see if there are any cross refference parts Dave
