Yes - a female 3-pin socket is taped onto the NAV monitor (behind the monitor) wiring harness on post 5/03 builds.

Tom: Am I reading his correctly--he is software version 81? So it should work?

That's because you guys and Bimmernav bought up all the stock.

Bimmernav is charging $75 for it:

and EAS, $39...

And all US dealers are out, and there is a national back order in Germany...

So... EAS it is! Plus EAS' price is about what you'd pay at the dealer anyhow... Not to mention Tom deserves the sale for helping with the thread. haa


See... I tried to buy one a month back before realizing that the kit came with my Nav retrofit:
