Love what you’ve done with the interior. The dashboard with the upgraded I-drive makes it look so modern! Definately going with this upgrade

@donaldkrump666 3 жыл бұрын

the round speaker is for your parking sensors up front if you have them or want to install them after. and you can put ur gps in ur dash on top upside down, will work perfectly fine. and also the wifi antenne can be put behind the radio.. you can use ur phone hotspot to use internet on the radio

Find the aux pins on the harness and tap into it, you might need to cut an earth as well, this is on the new harness side then you can not worry about the aux plug and not touch the factory side. Find the factory aux lines in a wiring diagram. I did this on an aftermaket install from an different supplier for a different car to get rid of that silly exetention to aux plug that all after market suppliers use.

Those cables you bypassed in the trunk are the Can-Bus system to the amplifier (can-bus system is used for audio, video, and display info using cool red lasers). It runs in series and if one module is down, the whole communication is down and it scares the others. Bypassing the Bus system closes that break and brings the talking group back together!

Looks super clean dude. I'm seeking recommendations on a pre lci e90 touchscreen that is compatible with Logic & could handle adding aftermarket 10in Kicker L7 sub & amp...im currently looking at the AVIN unit but afraid to spend $500+ on a unit that's not compatible w/this intended setup. Most concerned about the aftermarket sub & amp being too much for these android type units. Any help appreciated.

@Zodiam. 3 жыл бұрын

I have the same unit as he installed,. the AVIN one is the same unit but they charge a dumb amount and still provide no support, buy the cheapest one you can find with Android 10, 4gb RAM 64 GB and Octacore CPU, they are all the same. My car has Logic7 and this unit just resues the fiber optics, and i dont think it would be an issue adding an extra amp since you do that by splicing cables in the trunk near the amp (not an expert) but i know there are PNP-harnesses for plugging in an extra AMP via the Logic7 one so you can add another sub.

@@Zodiam. man why did he have to install an aux cable for audio? If u were to plug in via USB for CarPlay wouldn’t audio work through that?

@Zodiam. 3 жыл бұрын

@@mickjohnson86 Unless the CIC unit works way differently he shouldnt have to, the green/black fibre cable that you see around 11:05-11:10 is moved to the new connector which should allow you to get audio, mine had a CCC unit (2007 335i) and i did not use any AUX-cables. That said i have to set it to the "AUX" option in the original iDrive sources, but thats a one and done deal. AFAIK the aux cable route is for base audio systems without fibre optics and/or older android head units, if you look at older install guides its there, but none of the newer ones use it.

The AVIN head unit is better interface looks better and you have more option for front and rear cameras as well as dash with dvr and has a splitter that can run off the oem gps. Glad to see your back bro I plan on doing an overhead turbo install in the future but the single turbo you installed had me thinking price wise. Sucks I don’t have a trustworthy garage out here in Kansas like you do unless your people knows someone out here.

I've watched this videos a couples times. When initially posted, I went ahead and bought a unit. Unfortunately I was not satisfied with the unit and reached out to the seller but haven't heard back after two emails. Initially when purchasing the unit, they were very accommodating but once the sell was final, no luck getting to them. If you notice in your video, the OEM view its zoomed in which the same issue I am having. The other issue is that when on "Car Play", call comes in, if you click on "Accept call", it actually ignores the call and hangs up. There other little minors issues but I can deal with those. This isn't to bash your review, you are great at what you do and honest . Can you test these issues on your unit and do a follow up as to your conclusion. Would really appreciate it. Keep up the good work, love your channel!!
