Hi bud, i purchased the eonon ga7166s unit. It came with the harness needed to connect and run through the car. The new unit is a swap out affair with the original nav screen. I love it and took about an hour to install. Worth a look for the £300 i paid. They have a new updated model since however ...

ive got used to it now haha.
new car thing i suppose. learn the quirks

what radio do you have installed? have you looked via the main config menu on the screen?

:blink:

no one else have the same issues or attempted to tackle them before. appreciate its a manual specific thing but apparently is present on other models not just the x series.,

Having not had my X too long ( 1.5 weeks :-[) this CDV is new to me and im driving like a noob jerking in 1st and 2nd.
Ive heard you can remove it? any pros / cons to this?
or is it a case of getting used to it?

Thanks

big fan or vredesteins here and they dont get the praise they should, great all round tyre imo. will be going on mine as soon as the current bridgestone er30 are due for replacement.

from a fellow noob to another welcome, full of info this board and some very knowledgeable members.

from the wonderous world of google i keep coming up with the fact that only the dealer can program this which, if true imo is stupid as that means only the initial purchaser would be set up.

Programming the keys to remember the last seat and mirror position is done at the dealer

well BMW replied RE the gap in between the build and registration, they literally said dealers wont register until the car is sold and to contact the selling dealer.
::)

to set the memory seats position the seat as you would like then press the memory button and then the number you want that to be set to (1,2 etc).

to test it took the setting, move the seat again then press the number you selected and it should return back to your settings.

Either way there is a bill lol.

Morning guys and gals, Connected an amp / sub to the car yesterday. This all successfully comes on and turns off as it should. I need to know what colour wires to tap into to install a LOC to give me phono inputs. The one guide i has was from an american board and for a DSP car. My car is non - dsp ...

Thanks buddy

Connector for the electric backrest rake adjust option.  Will be one each side.  Not many cars had it, but mine did and very useful it was too

Aha, makes sense, take it plug and play then if I purchased a switch?

Thanks for the info

First off apologies for the noob-I-ness of the post but I tried searching with no joy. Found this connector in the boot, is this the oem sub connector? If so, could I use these wires to connect a low line convertor and install an aftermarket sub / amp. I know I'd need a remote, Earth etc http://i248 ...
