Finalized my Project!
Took a while getting all the parts and putting this together, but finally was able to finish. Upgraded my simple crappy radio for the new Mini system with the touchscreen.

Nice! Parts list please. Looking to do this in my wife’s hardtop. And also to my clubman. |
Would love to see the final parts list as well. I'm afraid to see the final price. Looking back at your post history this project has been in your mind for a few years.

These parts are what I needed as I had the regular radio, if you already visual boost, which is the 6.5" display, the cost will be less and less work will be required.

minicooperjp - sorry to detract from your post but where did you get the paddle steering wheel? Im looking for one with that button layout and text on the left.
|
Sorry totally forgot to reply! I found it on Ebay.
|
Sorry for the dummy question- but where did you purchase these parts. ???
After about 20-30 min of google searches all I’ve found is crazy hack sites and no real way of purchasing?? |
Hi, could you please help me with fsc codes to make it works or did you let some body else to do it wia usb pendrive for you? thanks Vik |
@Nbrennan490 just a lot of patience on Ebay and googling a lot. @vikislap I had someone do the fsc codes for me.
|
That's look amazing! Great work!
My 2015 F56 already has Visual Boost, Media XL, and Navigation so technically (if I didn't care about touch), all I would need is the new NBT EVO headunit? |

What you would need is the head unit (coded), WiFi antenna, and a custom video cable for your display that has a voltage regulator, as the EVO has a different voltage. |

https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?m...2F253905696186 Ita different, the other one is if they’re both newer generation. It would be like the one on top. What you do is you use the same cid wire but replace the 2 voltage pins as shown on the pics. https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.nor...425f02ff11.png https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.nor...abdaf2a802.png https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.nor...aab43c8f78.png |
Awesome thanks for all the info!

I am in the midst of this of this retrofit from Visual Boost to Media XL (NBT EVO 2 head-unit). I have already installed the 8.8" screen, touch ecu and touch iDrive controller. I am planning to get my VO coded properly, so I don't need to use an emulator.
Is it okay to install the head-unit prior to coding and updating the VO; or is it better to code the head-unit on a bench prior to installation. I do not want to brick the head-unit. @minicooperjp Where did you mount your GPS aerial and the WiFi aerial for Car Play. |
Bench code or you will lock the unit |
Bench is better .. I had to send it to one guy he generated fsc codes under my vin and unlock it and updated maps to 18,2 or so and I just put it in and change the vo and all is working fine. We where trying to do it by pendrive but there was problem with usb ... also remotely with esys was problem because I do have just lite version not full so he wasn't able to find file for update .

Bench coding is always the way to go for most people.
@cage911 I mounted mine on the metal frame behind the secret compartment/passenger dash piece |

@minicooperjp does your retrofit head unit show animations and images of an F56 or an F60? I got my retrofit done but the images are all F60.

@markbam did you have to do anything special? Istep update? I installed an Nbt EVO id5, hw3.1 from a 2017 f60.
Update Dont worry, I noticed from one of your previous posts that you got it coded in Bulgaria and was plug and play. Do you think they can remotely code from Bulgaria?. |
Will the Controller # 6582-9332-289 work with 2018 MINI COOPER COUNTRYMAN F60?.
