Dynavin N6 install -Pics!

phone mirroring...

does N6 have a video/audio (AV) input? if so, then you need to see if your phone is capable of producing video for an output... if it can, then you need to match the phone output to device input... that's it...

Anyone know what Jeff is talking about here? I went to their website and couldn't find anything...

NM: Found what he is referring to... and it's just the ACC wire in the Fakra. This won't give you headlight control or dimming. Use the one I suggested. It was multi meter confirmed before tapping it just to double check.

you didnt read the entire thing:

"if you want the lights to dim with the dash lights you will want to splice the orange wire from the fakra into a dash lighting circuit, the easiest place to do this on most cars is the ashtray light or at the stock head unit plug, in most BMWs the lighting wire is the grey and red wire on the blue plug. ALWAYS confirm this with a test light or voltmeter."

Gotcha... does that apply to the e53? Mine had factory nav so is that wire present in one of the two harnesses (one was blue) that formerly plugged in there? If so, that is definitely easier to get to than my solution.
