Active Sound Design retrofit to X6 E71

Hi all,

I have a 40d E71 that didn't have this as an option as I believe it was only for M50d and X6m cars. However, I'm working on a retrofitting the Top HiFi system and was considering retrofitting this at the same time while I have the car apart.

Again this will be a guide if I get it working for others to follow.

This is more complicated probably than it looks but I'd like to give it a go if possible.

So far from what I can work out, I need the ASD module, some wiring and some part on the exterior of the car

Be interested to know if anyone thinks this can work on a 40d. It looks like the wiring can be done like the 50d but I wonder if something in coding will cause an issue?

Piping sounds to your car, yields way too much HP....

If only.
I mean the better option would be to change to an X6M or change out the exhaust... but they are a lot more dollar
