According to the Xoutpost thread, you can indeed. That is what I want to do as well.

reading BMW coding website now but stil a bit worried about messing up with car electronics... it's not like changing smartphone firmware and jailbraking iphone ... it's like jailbraking £50k iphone

[quote=""X5Sport""]The HUD is a totally different dashboard upper panel and uses a special windscreen where the two glass sheets in laminated construction are at different angles (ie not in a parallel plane to each other - sometimes it helps to be a photographer) to avoid dual image reflection issues.

...the dashboard upper panel includes a projector unit that throws the image onto windscreen, so its definitely not just a progamming job.
Shame though eh?

I felt the same about coding my £50k car, two things helped me be less worried about it. Firstly there is a really good and detailed walkthrough guide, follow that to the T and you will be fine. Secondly, when you code you program Specific independent modules such as the kombi module ( speedo) or the ccc module ( Satnav) so you won't screw up the whole car.
