I will do a howto on installing it and showing how it works.

etc.

So radio installed this week and ibus interface the following week. I don't have time to go faster than that :)

Trying to get the front wheel bearing installed this weekend to be free to do the radio when it comes in.

Looking forward to your write up

Good Lordy, this thing looks awesome! Watched the video and my Dynavin N6 seems really outdated.

Its best these days to go with an amp with built in crossover control. My old school hifonics amps have them built in. The newer hifonics amps didn't impress me that much but that was the ones that came right after the ones I have and that was over 10 years ago so I have no experience with what they make now.

I know Rockford had gone downhill too back in the day but again no experience with their new stuff.

Im going with zapco from my research it seems to be the best there is at the moment for what I want to do.

Im doing an install thread on it right now here :

I didn't actually see a model number yet :)

I will post it and a link to where I bought it when I get done doing the install. Just came back into the house to eat real quick and then will get back at installing it.

If your referring to mine I have the screen glare protectors that are designed for privacy originally. Depending on how you apply them you get no glare. I use them in my other bmw's.

Cant be any worse than the factory radio.

I am saying that it is not straight...that designed you mentioned is useless! It is like mobile you take oit from pocket and you see nothong on the screen
