Whistle nav/ radar install E70 Easy Peasy

Easy to do.
1. Pull down front of sunroof control cover and slide out sunroof control cover. 2. Unplug the cover. Use a straight screw driver to press clips in. Removing the cover makes it easier.
3. Take the cap off the visor detention clip and unscrew with a Philips head screw driver. This makes snaking wire around headliner easier.

You can use the cigarette adapter with your device OR I used a 2 PORT USB adapter from the Shack to power 2 devices. (Nav and bluetooth speakerphone) $19 and a cigarette lighter port $7.99. There is plenty of room above the drivers side to hide all the electronics. PLENTY.

Ground the port adapter to the bolt holding the sunroof motor inlace. 10mm.

Find the GREEN/WHITE wire not the harnesses and tap into it. Plug in device or adapter and snake your wires around.

30m max time.

Simple my friends simple. Don't be scared.
