Grey shade band on the windscreen

Hi folks,

We just ordered an x5 40e, and I realised the Grey shade band on the windscreen is not listed in the option list, is it standard with the X5?
With our F10 and X3 it was an option to add.

I'm pretty sure it is.

At least for US models, it's not standard and I don't think there is an option for it.

Your right it's not just checked UK spec, and grey band windscreen isn't standard or an option (I was probably thinking of the X3)
Only windscreen option for the X5 is the Climate Comfort screen option.

Thanks folks, looks like an advanced option compare to the other BM like the X3 of course at double the price , I do like the green band on top of the windscreen, very useful when adding a camera around the internal mirror, it keeps it out of view and discreet.

You could always just tint the top of the windshield?
