Yes, I see there are some used Combox's on Ebay for that price but I don't think they're the same as the retrofit Combox's that are made to work on certain models and enable certain features. BimmerTech still has the retrofit Combox's listed on their site for over $600 so there has to be something more to the retrofit Combox's than there is to the OEM Combox's that you can get on Ebay for $50. I'd be better off reinstalling mine in my wife's X5 before I give it away for $50.
