And this is the stuff that is really pissing me off right now. I signed up on this forum just now because I have an E38, spent nearly a grand on this system, and had to watch YOUR VIDEO because there is ZERO literature for this device on an e38 with nav and DSP. It's infuriating and their response time to emails is not acceptable. How you can you release a complex product like this with absolutely no documentation or installation assistance?

Anyway... now that my rant is over, my biggest problem at the moment is that on the E38, there is no way that I can see to get the connector for the 6M cable through the back side of the console without removing the center console in its entirety (which conveniently is not noted in their sorry excuse for an [early non-nav-non-dsp] e38 installation guide).

I'm also not entirely sure what I have to run to the back of the car aside from that. There is what appears to be a lengthy RCA cable with an additional several-inch portion of red wire coming out of it. Is this for the backup camera? So many of the cables are not labelled so I'm stuck just kind of guessing what goes where. Once I get to the back, I'm not sure what the hell plugs in where either lol.

What a mess. Looks pretty, but it's not gonna do much good unless I can get the damn thing in the car.

Thanks for your video - it was WAY more helpful than anything I've gotten from Avin at this point. I feel like a beta tester.
