> I see its for the M135i, M140i, etc... Will it work on an OG M2 though?

A cursory glance at the F20 in TIS seems like the systems seem mostly the same across the two: MFL -> FEM (via LIN bus); drive dynamics switch -> ICM (via two wires).

I have a feeling that the solution was "connect some wires from one button to another" though, so as long as there are buttons in both, it should work.

He's on Instagram @b58_life if anyone would like to contact him.

I've placed an order for a kit, so fingers crossed

Will do!

It took him a day or so to get back to me also, think he's really busy.

He did advise it would be 2-3 weeks before his first batch are ready.

So I spoke to the seller and he told me it was a bit over $200. I then realized that we don't have the option for saving preset configs so all these buttons do is toggle through the modes like the buttons near the shifter. Wasn't worth it for me

Interesting. I do like the idea of it as I change modes often.

Nice enough guy to deal with, he was waiting on bits to put the kits together when I last spoke to him.
He stated 2-3 weeks & that was a week or so ago.

I am working on the retrofit of M1 and M2 buttons.
I am sure that if we still share more info the result will come.
What i do
Bought several oem parta from competition
-Gws + trim and deivelogic button and modified wiring to add this
-center console switch modified wiring i am only missing the pn 48 from ecu coming soon
- retrofitted m2 c cluster
- updated car to latest istep
- retrofitted m1 m2 oem button the whole parta not only red/blue buttons added to oem old part

What work:
- drivelogic work with selection of the speed
- nbt nothing yet ( maybe dme wiring will unlock this)
- another strange thing is that fem not gave me any error from replacing buttons. And this is very strange because lin bus check must gave error of wrong variant installed

Can anyone have idea why?

Yep I have same kit, different seller I think, had to buy the blue buttons separately as he only had red, plug & play install, kit works great.
