Upgraded to the Eonon GM5150 from the D5150. First I must say I was pretty happy with the D5150 but I really liked the new UI Eonon did with the GM5150. After receiving the unit I noticed right away Eonon listened to our feedback and lengthened the RCA wires and included a 90 degree iPod cable. These two additions make the install way easier! The RCA wires on the original D5150 were 75mm and on the new GM5150 they are 140mm's. Also there is a small black pad underneath the unit, this is there for a reason do not remove. This actually helps keep the unit sitting more secure in the dash. Simple but effective solution.
The biggest differences I have noticed from the D5150 is the Orange LED's to match the BMW dash. The Bluetooth Mic works really good. I tested a call and it came in loud and clear, I even put my finger over the Mic hole on the unit and there was NO difference in the call quality! The new UI is the biggest thing I really like about the GM5150. Every screen was redesigned and looks so much better. Small tweaks like moving the dimming button to the far left instead of the center, easier to reach while driving. The remote control is a leap forward from the old one, way to go Eonon! The clock size was reduced and moved to the far left and can be turned off if desired.
Here are a few minor issues:
1- The clock won't keep correct time.
(Set to GPS sync and the correct time zone)

2- The unit goes to A2DP music streaming on most start ups.
(Turning Auto Connect Off Corrects this)
I experimented with three different radio antenna adapters to address the radio reception issue. The one that comes from Eonon works best without the Blue wire connected.
The adapter I had previously used with the D5150 was slightly better, the 40-EU10. The one I found that works the best and eliminated most of static and weak reception is 40-EU55 the. It's for 2002 and up BMW's with powered antennas and newer Facra style antennas and is approx $13.
Adapter is a Metra 40-EU55

Installing the 5150 requires a relocation bracket. This part cost approx $85 from ECSTuning. There are two different ones available depending on which button console you have. This part is needed for lowering the AC controls down below making room for the 5150 on top. When you relocate the heater / AC controls what you want is BMW part number 51167001410, ECS part ES#82727.
Here's more information about the differences between the two "single cutout" mounting brackets...
51167001410: Single cutout version w/ smoker's package
51167001408: Single cutout version non-smoker's package
The non-smokers package allows for easy installation of the front storage compartment 51168208369 and does not include the LED light. You can retrofit the compartment tray into a smokers unit but there's a little tab that needs to be cut out.
Cigarette lighter block off plug 51168222183.
Functionally either one will work but if you get the wrong one you will have a gap in the lower corners.
Two videos on how to take apart the dash and remove the Stereo, AC controls and Storage bin. Here is a helpful tip for removing the center vent, use two plastic cards (old credit cards/store membership cards) and slide them into the top left and right corners of the center vent. This will release both clips.
