BM53 radio modules for OEM Nav - Clear up part # confusion

sna77 · 04-12-2009, 07:18 AM

Anyone have a list of the part #'s for the radio modules?

I am looking at retrofitting OEM Nav, and need ot make sure I buy a BM53 that is compatible with AUX / Sirius.

So far, these are the only part #'s I have been able to dig up:

65 12 6 933 089 - from a 2003
65 12 6 922 512 - from a 2004

Neither show up on realoem.com if I do a part # search. Is there a list of all the radios and their part #'s somewhere?

Just want to confirm I buy the right thing (and checking software version will probably be impossible since I'm buying a used part).

Thanks

Ask as EAS or Bimmernav.com, they will let you know what you need.

Well, I think i know what I need... A 2004+ BM53 module. Some 2003's...

Realoem.com doesn't list the part #'s. A list of all the part #'s would empower me to search on my own for the part, without bothering others for help...

I don't understand what the big secret is... Just list all the radio part #'s and which are AUX / Sirius compataible...

Search over at Bimmerboard.com, I don't know the part numbers but I am pretty sure this has been discussed in the Nav section there. You could also post the part numbers and ask there as well.

ok, finally found it on realoem.com... Damn, this page was buried:

65-12-6-988-276 appears to be the newest... And www.getbmwparts.com has it for $418. Cheaper than any junkyard / ebay / bimmernav.com is selling it for... If you are upgrading your existing Nav, $167 + your core is a GREAT deal...

Dumb question:

Your BM53 radio supports Sirius / Aux right?

And would hope to think so since mine is a Dec 2007 production unit.

And the retrofit wire harness for it shows the connection for AUX in and CD Changer.
