on a whim I got the 453 screen, and it's not blue tinged so that answers that (shame as it was $60 more than the other which was only $170).
Installation was pretty straightforward.

pull ac vents off no tools, rest on towel sitting below so it doesn't scratch.
unscrew 2 screws with torx bit holding screen.
while trying to tilt the screen forward, press in clip with thumb and and use flat head screwdriver in other hand to pop off signal cable (by rotating the flat head to pry the plug loose).
installation is the reverse.

with bimmercode, turn on the ACC power, in the NBT 3000 and 3001 menu's adjust the resolution and brightness respectively.
When you exit and hit code it automatically reboots the HU and the screen lights up. (just have to save your presets again).


Only one question, does the screen dim with the headlights on still?
