High-OBC...did I get the wrong one?

[bimmer630]

I grabbed a high OBC/trip computer and wiring/stalk switch from a JY car, and just read on R3vs "howto" section that there are different ones for E and I cars. Im pretty sure the donor was an E.

Theres a coding plug in the back of the computer though, can I just pop this out and get an I coding plug?

There should be no difference. My old 325e had a factory OBC and when I swapped to an i engine it still worked correctly.
