One of the best step by step install videos I have seen with excellent instructions you guys are rock stars
I ordered a new head unit and I have been researching how to do it. I wasn't sure how the thing would fit until I realized the air needs to be repositioned! Now I see how it all goes together in the end and I am not afraid to try this. I still haven't received my new unit, maybe this week, but, just watching you pop the air out, I feel confident now. Mine is a 2011 323i which is different from the other models I saw instructions for. You have given me the confidence to do this. I never did BMW before but a couple Hondas. I will be sure to report back when I am complete! (hopefully)
I must say, I am enjoying all your video's, vlog's...etc. You install a lot of different cartypes en models. Finding the solutions to some problems, very good.
A lot of learning from you guys. Both pratical and theory. I am an part-time car audio installer as well in the Netherlands, but I can say every car is an challenge, no matter what the install is. But looking to your video's I get good vibes to be more creative in installation. Keep up the good work guys!!
I love watching you guys work on vehicles.
THANK YOU for this great video. Comprehensive and easy to follow. Much appreciated!!
Incredible!!! Just a great tutorial. I’m gonna give it a go tomorrow. The only thing I didn’t know was that you could but a double din into the dash. But, I know now😏
This tutorial has been immensely helpful!! Thanks guys!! I was also wondering what the purpose of the red/white 12+ Programmable Output is for. I connected the solid red in the PAC harness to the solid red on the pioneer harness, but I was unsure what the red/white was for. Should I just cap this off?
This is a useful and informative install. We have the connects2 harness here instead of the PAC one. And yes, this is one of the better dash kits for this..
Shakeel Faris I would like to try the Connects2 wire harness, but we only get the kits here.
Stellar job you guys keep up the good work Diggin the seat covers.
seattle206253 thank you. They are really nice. If you are interested we got them here

Haven't got a BMW 328i, nor indeed any BMW, yet still found this interesting. Happy to leave this install for the pros! And nice to see your shoulder really sharp and in focus!
Noticed you slipped an extra "W" in the code with your PAC Audio unboxing. ;)
nchia my shoulder got a cameo.
By far the best video 💯🤘🏻
i love that play by play ..good work guys keep it up
Gio arteaga thank you very much
I got on eonon kit for my e90. I didn't like the the install trim that I saw with the pioneer. This is the best looking trim I have seen.
That is good step-by-step video. I don’t have stock amp and planning to install aftermarket amp and woofer so was wondering what will be changed in the harness?
Great video, I have a 2011 128i car but with an factory amp. How would the install be different?
HI guys, congrats on the awesome job you do with your videos! Got a question which doesnt have much to do with the stereo install itself but it is related to e90 cars... nime doesnt come with cup holders. I found some online for a good price but I need to know how many chances I got to find the appropriate slots behind the dashboard plastic shield where they are usually mounted... I thought I'd ask, since you might have worked on BMW 3 e90 and might have seen what's behing that plastic cover...

What would I be looking at for a instalation on my 328i
Nice and clean guys. Thanks for the vid
Brian Miles you bet, thank you
Thankyou Guys Very Professional
Great work guys nice kit
John Perez thank you, yes totally
Hey dean, quick question on this pac module. On the interface 2 adapter, there is a red/white 12+ programmable output wire, my question is do I connect this wire to all my red accessory wires? Also for the “illumination output” wire on interface 2 plug and dimmer wire from vehicle connector, these both go together? I’m currently working on this interface module for my car. Thank you for the help!
Miss my original power probe. Glad your is still working. Mine gave up the ghost last month. That was 25 years..ish? I have the new version now, and do not like it as much. Too big.
Thank you for this. Moar!!!
Do you guys have a preferred mounting kit for similar installations on the BMW 135i (in my case, 2011 135i w/ automatic climate control and no factory amp)?
Also, what did you do to this car to eliminate the BMW Assist SOS error that shows up after the OEM head unit is removed?
Hey man, was looking to do this in my 09 328i, but i have additional subs hooked up through the factory amp (non FO). Was wondering if this retains factory amp controls and the subs underneath the seats?
Thank you! Nobody else's install video came close!!!!
Two things, can you use apple car play without plugging in the iPhone, and also Is it possible to still use the heated seats after this installs
Hello there!! Nice work, question where did you connect the red power wire to?
Can I ask where do you ground an aftermarket amp in this car.? Thanks
Great, clean install. As always, great job!
don198769 thank you
Great video
i have a 2009 bmw 328i am i able too install (2) 12 amp speakers? if so which are the best reasonable priced speakers too use
how can i install if i have fiber optic amp?
Hey so I have a 2007 bmw 328 xi. The video is very detailed but I have never ever dealt with wiring and harness. So is there a way that the fast forward parts on the video can be slowed down for beginners like me can observe what you do?? Or can some one walk me through the wiring part of the video
Hey Dean , i enjoy ur videos alot and wish have more informative video to come. Im just curious where did your red ignition wire connect from coz from wat i know the 328i does not have an ignition wire from the car connector? I believe somewhat comes from canbus... Not sure. Is that pink and pink/black from the pac unit connected to the hi and lo canbus connector? Kinda confused hoping your able to clear things for me. Sorry if im such a newbie i appreciate your patience. Thank you!
And How do I do this WITH the Fiber optic amp??? - I've replaced the head unit already, and installed a decoder box - but that only has 2 channels RCA - so I have left and right. No fader. I'd like to bypass the amp, and install connecting to the factory speaker wiring - is there a plug & play adapter for this? (2008 335Xi, no nav) My head unit has 5 RCA outs. (Eonon Android unit) Speakers too down the line.
I have a 2011 m3 the button on my stereo is for the m sport mode instead of recirculation control, what would I do with the brown wire?
Really impressive,,,,so bafetho tell me please,where can i buy that bracket for my e64 convertible as i want to change the stereo it's ccc always have problems........South Africa
Since some 5 years have passed since this install video was produced, would it be fair to assume that the install in an E90 would be made somewhat easier now by using one of the current double-din head units that have no CD drive and are therefor quite a bit shorter in the rear ?
Is this possible with a BMW e92 that has idrive with no factory amp?
I have the exact bmw, ordered everything from Crutchfiled. It comes with the exact PAC wiring harness, my only question: What is the micro bypass used for?
Hey I was wondering, how much would this coast to do for yourself and how much would it cost for someone else to do it?
Can you wire up a rear cam to it?
Thanks very much for video.
Evo Ninetys thank you for watching
what year is this car? i have 2008 335i and want to install this with a joying head unit but don’t want to lose oem chime jinggle thing lol. will i be able to retain those chimes?
I am looking forward to doing this to my car. The dash looks the same except that where this ashtray goes I have a pocket instead and also under my temperature control I have a DTC I believe it's called button. So what would happen to that DTC button if I were to do this upgrade? Thanks for your time
Metraonline.com does make some panels for switches in that car, you may want to check there.
Hi big fan of the channel just wanted to know it you would be able to do a video on installing a dual din radio into a 2010 Mercedes c300. Thinking about installing one but wanted to see how it would look. Thank you!
Julio Andriuoli if we come across one sure. We might have a photo on our Instagram page or Facebook
What would you do if you have heated sets?
can you guys please help me install just the rotary knobs ? i cant find a video on it
That kit is wayyyyyy nicer then Metra, Or connects 2 all day long!
CarPhonix CarAudio you guys need to give your AAMP rep a call. The PAC stuff is way better and far fewer headaches. If you have any questions about their stuff give me a call.
My metra kit looks really good perfect fit...don't know what your talking about...
How big is the gap at the bottom. I heard all bmw e90 kits have gaps and stick out
Will this kit fit a 2011 128i bmw?
What if I have a fiber optic amplifier? What do I have to do with the amp?
Where did you put the heated seats buttons?
What if you don’t have the amp just base bmw can you help me out ?
no at the time we only had the metra piece. it was an 09 one series with the hifhfi system. everything worked fine except for the sis light kept flashing and it would chime. apparently something to do with the factory Bluetooth.
froshouseable ok, If you get the chance check one of these out. Way better
What is the price pls ?? in total if i wanted to make it instal ?
Where did you connect the power to (red wire to where?) not the yellow (memory)
Just FYI, no really reason changing the fiber (logic7) amplifier, its good enough, but for some odd reason they did, you can recode the 2rad(non idrive radio) from L7 to HIFI then go that route, unless you're changing the whole radio then you pretty much have to tap into the output lines from the amp that way. If it has Idrive and wanted to get rid of L7 and go a whole custom route, just have someone or get NCS Expert to code out the L7 to HIFI then carry on.
I have an 09 328xi how much would this cost?
Hey I have a 2011 bmw 328i. It has factory Amp without the fiber optic cable. The thing it's that the radio there's no sound. You think it might be the Amp that it doesn't work no more.
Please do me a favor and show how yo wire a head unit in a 1999 lexus gs300. They have the kit to mount it and a radio harness but none of them seem to put sound out through the harnesses that ive bought
VICSTOR101 Have you been to clublexus? I installed my Pioneer Avh-5700bt double din myself with help from that site. If you have the Pioneer audio system, you'll need 2 toyota wire harnesses and extra wires as you'll need to extend to the second harness to connect to the factory amp. I really suggest 4 or 5 channel amp for your speakers instead of using head unit to power the speakers. It makes installation is so much simpler, you'll need only one Toyota harness, you'll need 3 wires out of it to power and illuminate the headunit.
If you have ML or Nak system, your only option is full headunit/amp/speakers/and sub upgrade...
It sucks that we don't have a perfect wire connector for our system.

J Silver yeah sucks well i already had in mind to just put a full on system just kinda wanted to avoid the hassle of a 4channel
VICSTOR101 4 channel is worth it. I just can't believe I waste so much time owning my 300 without an amp for the 6.5 speakers. Oh I don't know if you already knew, but once you install your head unit, you will no longer have the factory 10 inch sub working since it only works with the factory sub. So your forced to install a sub.
can i install this to a bmw 328i coupe 1998 ?
I have a question for you guys. I have a 06 BMW e60, I install I aftermarket CD player using a scosche BW01SR with my alpine deck for the SWC. Now I have replace the CD player with a pioneer one, which SWC interface would you recommend? As the Scosche don't work with pioneer CD player. Thanks
Dung Ho looking at the Scosch instructions, the Panasonic has to be a typo for Pioneer. I would contact them before I bought a new interface.
Will the harness work for a 2007 bmw 328i with a amplified system?
No
How much money will I be adults to have this done to my 2011 BMW 328I
We're are you guys located at what city and street
Jesus I miss owning a 90s/00 Honda. Radio replacement done in 10 minutes. I've just lost all motivation to replace the radio.
(Yes, I asked you a car audio-related question at 4AM Pacific time)
SeanOMatic haha sleep is overrated
Where do i get the micro bypass wire?
Do u guys have a shop?
How does it cost materials and labor pls?

Is there an error code on the dashboard? I wonder how much you charge your customer for this kind of install.
Ok when I get my car how do I contact you to fix it 😭?
How do you address a car with the fiber optic amp?
I was wondering about this aswell. Still looking.

Alarm delay issue... I have a 2013 BMW 335i convertible E93 and replaced the stock Professional HU (6512 9302171-01) with a Kenwood DDX9906XR using Axxess wiring harness LC-BMRC-01 and Axxess steering wheel adapter ASWC-1. Everything works except when the car is locked for a while it goes into sleep mode and when I unlock the car the alarm takes several seconds to disarm. Once the car is out of sleep mode the alarm works perfectly without any delay. Yellow wire is run to battery Any idea why this is happening?
SOLVED: The Axxess Wiring harness came setup already wired. From the main connector that connects to the BMW harness a bundle of wires went to the chime speaker, another bundle went to the Axxess ASWC-1 (for steering wheel controls) and the final bundle were for the speakers. That Axxess wire harness had two yellow wires, one was pre-wired from main wire harness that connects to the BMW harness and the other end connected to the chime speaker. The second went from main wire harness that connects to the BMW wire harness and the other end was left open so it could be connected to the stereo. Problem is, both of those yellow wires go to sleep after about 45 minutes. The fix is to not use either. Cut the one that connects to the chime speaker and hard wire it to the battery. Also, hard wire the stereo to the battery. This solved my problem.
My i drive won't work, radio and the steering buttons won't work either. Help
I have a 2009 Nissan Murano with the bose sound system and wanted to know if I can replace the head unit
hinojosa9211 not with Bose, no kit yet.
Five Star Car Stereo do you know if any time soon they will have a lot for it?
Hi guys, I was just wondering what year the bmw was, and if you have run into the sis or s1s light flashing on the dash after install a radio in any bmw?
froshouseable I think it was an 07. No, have not had that problem yet. Have you used this PAC adapter yet and had that issue?
What's the cost approx
what about the seat warmer bar that is under the air conditioning controls?
There is a relocation kit for that, if you need to. Metra 98-9306.
How much do you charge for this
what are the little butt connecter call at the end of the wire that you capped off
The Beige Wonder it is just a 22awg butt connector. We get the from AAMP one of our suppliers. Most local shops that by from them should be able to get you a bag.
Do you guys have any kits for 2016 Ram 3500 ?
Frankie Dominguez what radio do you have in the dash?
Hello there guy's, I'm having an issue with my 4200nex with the time an date it's not changing on its own help is there a setting I need to adjust somewhere?
lolo ent have touched the clock on the screen to open the settings?
Huh!
would you guys be able to add a HU to a 135i that has fiber optics connected Harman Kardon Amps.
Dev Gill what year?
it is a 2013i with harman Kardon amp fiber optics at back of head unit
its a 2013 135is. Sorry I thought I replied but ???
Just installed the Sony xav ax7000 in my 2010 328i with this harness and the volume is extremely low. I have to max the volume for it to be at a normal/comfortable level. Am I missing something? I believe I have the base audio system with no factory amp but the Sony should have built in amps.
What five star car stereo installer diaries 58, I had the same issue. Hope it helps
@@0togtr811 using the wires (high out) instead of RCA (low out) seems to be working for me. Soldering up the rest of the wires right now!
@@jonathanwu7805 awesome, glad I could direct you.
are you that bad ass Dean ? cause I tried tearing the tesa tape like you and no go for me . what is the part number
pissed off they make 2 types of tape that we use. One is a felt type in the video, the other is for under the hood. The under the hood high temp stuff you have to cut. So not that bad ass.
How long do one of these radios take to install? I’m getting mine done on my 2008 bmw e90
3 to 5 hours
Tell me how it goes I'm in the exact situation
Got mine done on the same day the new head system on my bmw works perfect @dean tetro
@@FiveStarCarStereoInc what is the approx cost
Does this work on a 2011?
Joge Woods I also have a 2011 and I'm wondering if you have the DTC button on yours
@@christiandelatour2140 DTC is not related to the radio - it is dynamic traction control. This is only do-able on a 2011 if it does not have i-drive and it does not have a fiber optic amp
So guys, what's the alternative when you do have the fiber optic amp? You just kept saying if you don't have it you're good to go, but I do have it. So now what?
Peter XM need to add aftermarket amp too.
For reference: Since I posted this question, I've done some poking around and figured out there's ways to make the fiber optic amp work with this Pro4
