Hi!
You could buy an ethernet obd cable on ebay or build it by yourself (instructions can be found here in the forum)
Just watch/read some tutorials about coding, to get into it
The software you need for coding (NCS, Esys etc.) is linked in the coding section.

I would start to get first a good power supply, 80-100A constant current to keep the battery charged, otherwise a world of trouble you are in if modules gets blocked while coding..

1. Interface cable K+DCAN
2. ISTA Rheingold to diagnose the car
3. From the same link with ISTA Rheingold, you have Standard tools, install that and there you have NCS Expert, NCS Dummy for coding.
No ENET, no ESYS for Mini R56
