There is no official retrofit because the hardware for ID5 is different. All ID5 Head Units have external GPS via ATM, and have 4 Gb instead of 2 Gb memory, and unless car has ATM module (e.g. has TCB), all Telematics (e.g. Connected Drive, ARTTI, etc.) are lost after ID5 flash, and new ID5 Map FSC Code will be needed, which cannot be ordered from BMW AG for car with factory ID4. Lastly, most likely ID4 hardware with ID5 firmware will suffer random and frequent rebooting due to RAM limitation.

Thanks for the clarification. Strangely, I recall reading somewhere else someone saying that "official" upgrades were coming in Feb, so thought this might be legit. All I can think is they're putting an "ID5 Lite" in instead? And ID5 version for ID4 hardware.
