MPE hardwired
I'm over the Bluetooth double press thingy on the MPE. Has anyone hardwired a switch to simply turn it on/off?
I'm thinking to use a factory button (much like the reverse sensor option, that I've also done) and have it more like in a Porsche. I like the idea of just a single press to turn it on or off, no need for an extra item in the car. I want it more factory integrated looking. Any thoughts or input much appreciated. |

Don't want it open all the time....cold start, early mornings, etc I still want the closed option. Once the car is warmed up, out of my garage and housing area or when I am not on long hwy drives where there is a lot of cruz control I want them open.
I ran the M4 with MPE open all the time and it was a bit rough at times..... but I wished it was switchable on demand. That is why I am looking forward to the M2 MPE |

Yes I'd be interested in a solution. I find the provided remote cheap and inconsistent. For a factory installed option I can't believe it doesn't link through iDrive

I'd love a hard-wired solution too. I wish I was smarter at electronics; I'd take apart the trunk mounted module and see if you could control the flaps without the bluetooth controller. Maybe tap into the output signal that goes to the exhaust flap motors.
