Alright... so its very easy to put a CD player in most vehicles, however i'd bet good money its NOT in a BMW!
I have googled it and haven't found much help- and I know there are some pretty smart people on this forum.
I can get a decent touch screen CD DVD player on ebay, or in a store. I don't care if its the BMW stuff- but i want a touchscreen with a nice monitor....
What hardware would I need? Who sells "mounting kits", and the adapters?
I'm willing to pay decent money just for installation- im tired of my tapedeck. thanks all.
would i need a special adapter to plug in the CD player or is it built in? I know for a chevy tracker i could pick it up at Wally World(WalMart)
You can fit a double din in with some modification (cutting) to the very hard abs plastic vent system in the back. A double will fit high & wide but not deep without the cutting.
You can also do a single din with a flip up screen like this....
I went back to the single din that now looks like below. There is a aftermarket mounting bracket that I used here. I haven't really seen any different style other than this one. The wood grain was just me taking the stock flip door and playing with the dremmel....a little duck tape...and whammo. When I replace the radio (the first time) I also did all the speakers, added a sub & a JL 500/5 amp. I didn't use any of the factory wiring so I dont know what adapters are available.
looks very nice...still have the pioneer?
i have a custom eclipse double din.. in my 528i
