Thanks to this, the driver can operate phone functions intuitively, without the need to reach for the center console. This solution reduces distraction and supports safe operation of the communication system while driving.

Construction and integration with vehicle electronics

The phone button module is designed as an OEM component, compatible with the factory wiring harness and electronic architecture of the BMW E65/E66. Its design provides for:

• dedicated placement on the left side of the steering wheel,
• integrated function buttons for phone operation,
• electrical interface adapted to the BMW controller system.

Such a solution allows for maintaining consistent operation with other electronic control modules and controllers in the vehicle, without the need for installation modifications.
