My understanding is that it is a simple swap of the units and that is it. The downside of it is the cost.

BMW MINI will often say things that are not totally true. For instance I wanted TMC on my american model car and all I had to do was swap the HU to get it. MINI said I needed to rewire the car.

I have changed mine. Straight swop. Takes approx 1hour.You may have to pay BMW to update to the latest version V27.1 I think, but apart from that its easy
Am now hopefully in the process of fitting a 2006 boost CD HU and that should give me TMC as well
