Upgrade HeadUnit (Pioneer D1) in 2001 X5 Factory Stereo w/ DSP and no NAV

[hackrat]

Hi,

I'm thinking about upgrading to the Pioneer AVIC-D1. You can see it herehttp://www.pioneerelectronics.com/pn...219118,00.html

I need some advice from the pro's here

I have a 2001 X5 4.4 Factory radio with no navigation but with DSP. I want to keep the factory speakers, sub woofer, and factory amp. Is it a simple matter of me hooking up the Pioneer D1--to-->BMW X5 wire harness into the wire harness inside the X5 car?

Do I need to make any changes to the factory amp or DSP? I have read that for the 2001 X5, the factory radio passes all audio information to the DSP. Will it be the same case with the Pioneer D1 installed?

Thanks

Did you get it done? I am interested in how you did it.
