E93 Killer Mod!!

slickvince · 05-14-2007, 09:23 AM

I just purchased one of these bad boys!!.

check it out:
https://www.wilhelmy-it.de/sms/shop/...ew&idlistpos=1

Now I can:

Open and close the roof with the key fob (no Comfort access)
Open and close the top while driving up to 40km
One touch the all windows up and down. Could only do down before
Trunk comfort feature (if you don't have comfort access)

Who needs comfort access. this thing is cheaper.
Can't wait till this comes in. :rocks:

$379 + installation is not really going to be cheaper. Plus, this does not allow the coolest feature which is keyless entry and starting of the car. The only thing I am really interested in is the distance from which the top can be raised and lowered.

In the end it looks like your trading keyless entry for putting the top up/down while the vehicle is moving. Hardly what I consider a "killer" mod. BTW, putting the top up/down while the vehicle is moving is a violation of the law and could easily damage the roof if you hit a speedbump or something.

Regardless, I have definitely bookmarked this page as they could possible have some other cool mod's for the car.

pretty good, find, give us a little write up once you have it installed and given it a test run

tadders · 05-14-2007, 09:51 AM

This does look great, let us know how you get on.....

slickvince · 05-14-2007, 09:57 AM

Agreed the price is not that cheap but comfort access was not available when I ordered my car and I was kinda pissed that I did not get it.

Installation look like a piece of cake and a friend of mine who got this mod for their porsche 911 said it works like a charm.

Yeah you really have to watch out where you open and close the thing.

As for distance apparently it will open and close the roof the same distance you can open and close you doors!

I will post once I have installed this thing.

choatie88 · 05-14-2007, 10:05 AM

Cool, keep us updated.

Installation looks pretty easy, certainly no harder than Procede for example.

I hate you! ;-) I have comfort access, but now I will have to buy this stuff too, because opening on the move and the one-click features are just sooo cool! I wished I knew it before!
Thanks, really good find!

Sweet.

rocketm · 05-14-2007, 11:27 AM

Can e93 that has comfort access to have this mod install? Will there be any conflict?

slickvince · 05-14-2007, 11:37 AM

Not sure but I beleive that it should be okay since you can disable or enable all the functions. So if you have comfort access you can disable the opening or closing of roof from the key fob or disable the comfort trunk opening and enable everything else.
I would e-mail these guys just to be certain. They are very good for support.

Statguy · 05-14-2007, 11:39 AM

I have it on my current cab (996TT) and it does work perfectly!

Brunotheboxer · 05-14-2007, 12:54 PM

Nice. Keep us posted on this.

E90330iS · 05-14-2007, 05:24 PM

Cool!

SpecC · 05-14-2007, 05:26 PM

for some reason, i thought rockets coming out of your roof when i clicked this thread

anyways, saw the E93 open yesterday for the first time. looks like you're gonna be the first to get this cool new mod. Keep us posted!

PI Guy · 05-14-2007, 06:19 PM

Remote Start....thats what I want!

astra · 05-14-2007, 06:21 PM

i thought all those things should of hapened anyway? there's no "comfort acess" on my e46 and it does these things (except for moving up to 40kms/h with teh roof moving, it's really only about 20 in my car)

choatie88 · 05-14-2007, 07:04 PM

e46 != e93... the e93 roof stops as soon as the car moves, among other programmed deficiencies to protect BMW from lawsuit-happy idiots...

do we really need to be playing with the roof while we are driving????

ward · 05-14-2007, 07:40 PM

you can't open the top from the keyfob???

that's lame! I can drop the top from the key in my Z4

slickvince · 05-14-2007, 10:12 PM

looks like BMW is trying to rape us and make everyone buy the comfort access!!!!

I would never get CA, it's not secure. Hackers have been known to use a laptop with a transceiver to unlock your doors and start the engine if you have CA all without the key. Sure there is some security built in but its weak and not immune from being hacked. IMO sooner or later this will become a huge problem and you would have to take it to the dealer to get your system updated or changed out. If you are buying a new car I wouldn't trust it.
