Hello all,
I've purchased a 2004 Mk1 75 tourer that is currently being recommissioned with Jules in N.Wales.

It originally had a Highline set up but evidently the units in the rear have suffered water damage and don't work and the headunit was removed for a cheap DAB radio by the last owner.

The loom is there, I'd like to reinstate a Highline system.
From messages from Greeners I've been told I can buy recent BMW units that plug and play.

I have read a blog by John Parish online from 2011 about updating the Highline system.
Is John Parish still on here?

I'd really like any help to buy the latest upgrade I can...I've seen lots of BMW components on eBay but would appreciate all the help I can get on what units to look out for and faults.

Maybe wide-screen headunit and Mk4 SatNav drive.
How about BMW DAB or Digital TV tuners, Bluetooth and SatNav upgrades?

Appreciate your help

Thank you

Paul
