They go by many names, P01, P59, VPW, '0411 etc. Also covering E38 and newer here.

Here's the stock/factory 12606960 bin from my 2004 L59 w/3.73 gearing. Still has my VIN in it, but not sure if that's a concern. Maybe it can help someone (persingc and/or Phoenix maybe?) develop a proper XDF. There are definitely differences the further you get into it from 12587603.

Whether you are concerned about vin or not is up to you. Most people dont care, some people do. The cars usually have the vin in the window for anyone to see and its not a security risk in any way just on its own. Personally I do not worry about posting my car's vin and I think knowing the vin is useful for knowing more about the car and therefore the bin. The last numbers in the vin are usually a serial number. Some people change or zero just that part, too.

Today, I used PCM Hammer to flash the 6960 with fan settings added via Universal Patcher. So far, so good. Great to have those tools available to the community.
