Installation and operational characteristics

The USB cable for the HSD CIC system in BMW 1 and 3 Series is an installation component that can be replaced in the event of mechanical damage, connectivity problems, or upgrades to the factory multimedia system. Thanks to its OEM-compliant design, installation is orderly, utilizing factory harness routing points.

Used condition means that the item comes from disassembly, which in practice allows for economical repair or restoration of the factory configuration without the need for aftermarket replacements. This is a good solution for users who want to maintain the original character of the installation in their BMW.

Selecting the correct part by numbers and brand

The USB wiring harness is a part dedicated to specific equipment configurations, so when selecting, it is worth paying attention to the manufacturer's markings and related replacement numbers. The product has an assigned OEM part number and interchangeable numbers, which facilitates verification of compatibility with your vehicle and CIC navigation system.

To ensure a perfect fit, you can also use the SKU inventory code and information about the manufacturer, where the BMW brand is key. This approach reduces the risk of purchasing an item that does not fit a specific equipment version.
