I took delivery on a new 435xi about a week ago. One of the first things I wanted to do was get my V1 hooked up. On my previous E92 this was easy. I just tapped into the fuse block which was eminently accessible behind the glovebox. But the F32 has 3 fuse blocks! One in the engine compartment and two more in the trunk. Tapping one of these becomes impractical.
I managed to gain access to the top control assembly where the SOS button and sunroof controls live. But I cannot seem to find a switched 12 volt line to tap. Seeing as the car is a brand new model, online info is nonexistent.
Does anyone have any advice on how to do this? I was thinking about researching tapping into the sensing unit behind the rearview mirror, but I"m not fond of the power cable coming out from there.
The only other consideration is a V1 Savvy. But I'm still seeking alternatives.
Thanks.
