[@antonychadburn1404]

When I fitted mine I used a stanley knife to start off the cutting line then used a soldering gun with a blade. It took me around 15 minutes to cut it out and much neater.

[@kaloyanbarekov521]

Glad it helped!

[@kingb7080]

Good job bro. Cleanest install I have seen so far. Straight and well aligned. My question is, does the operating system lag? And where did you get the unit from. Thanks in advance.

[@humancode]

Thanks for the good words mate 🤝 It didn’t lag, was best mod I’ve ever done, changed feel of the car completely

[@kingb7080]

[@incartechie]

Great installation video!

[@XefaCL]

Hey! thanks for sharing. Is it a PERFECT FIT? meaning no noticeable gaps between the frame and the dashboard?

[@humancode]

Unfortunately there were some signs, it's not perfect fit, at least in my case I've been trying to play around with cutting bit by bit for perfect fit for whole day and still had some missfit. It's not much, something like 0.5-1cm missfit at some places, but if you would use smaller cutting hole and some super glue to force frame in - that should work

[@filipunknown6167]

song on 3:50? great video btw, just make yourself a little bit louder 🙂

[@bmw318iyu]

Hi on the speedometers, tachometers on the screen how to I change it from gallons to litres showing the gas?

[@bmw318iyu]

Mine dosnt have any sound. Do you need to take the cake from the unit and send it where the Aux cable goes near the handbreak?

[@polvoramexico]

Is it possible to see that it is broken in the upper left part, was it a bad installation or does the cutting template come with the wrong measurements?

[@humancode]

I think it was cutting template since I had to cut more and more like 10 times after having a clear teplate just to get the screen in 😅

[@rogercrow6698]

Excelente,,saludos from Colombia.

So does the original radio still work? Like the cd player?

[@fontexstudios]

Some models come with a camera for reverse. Didn't you install it?

[@hollywood_cartieer337]

Would it be wise for me to buy that without the original radio in the car? I had brought the car with an aftermarket radio and then they stole it and now it's just empty. What do you guys advise I do

[@cvaggelis95]

Make a long term video of the screen 😀

[@jaygabriel6499]

Had the same unit but unable to make my reverse camera work. Any suggestions what i need to check?

[@itsTAHAgg]

Dvr in cam cable, red wire instead of reverse light drive to radio dvr 12v output , :) , works whole time but this player switches itself in reverse

[@alterata]

hello! I upgraded the system but now nothing works, I try to revert the upgrade but I can't do it, do you have a link for original firmware? I can't find it.. I think i can install it over the USB plug but only if i can find it somewhere

[@salkodinamitas7681]

My i drive knob when werithing is off is light on i dont now what to do

[@davidvitez9357]

There is no way back after this, I am worried that it will reduce the price of the car if I want to sell it, because it will no longer be in original condition with damaged dashboard. I probably prefer the standard 2 din radio.

[@damir19081]

so android radio is connected with original one. Which means needs to have 2 radios in the car cant remove the original one ?

[@humancode]

nop, need two, that's bit weird, but it is what it is

[@silas.anderson]

Hello I hope you answer, I installed mine but the fit on the left where the clusters hump is doesn’t fit right. It’s not sitting flush. I was wondering if you had a similar issue or anything like that.

[@humancode]

Hello, yes. Might be slight miss on applying the sticker and then cutting the hole, some superglue should help It stick

[@LaRRyl33t]

what size display is it 8 inches or bigger?

[@juanjr.campos143]

Any links for this product? And an irrelevant question. I have both lock windows & parking light on even when E90 is off. Anyone knows why by any chance or is this just standard on all BMW. Sorry just recently bought E90 for project purpose 😅

Well it’s says for bmw 2009 + I have e92 2006 looks inside exactly like yours , so I can’t install it ???

Did you have issue with changing screen? When i turn blinker my navigation changes screen to reverse camera. If u had same problem what did you do to fix it?

[@humancode]

Didn't have any issues myself, I would suspect a faulty unit or some of the wiring wrong

[@olivierberes2154]

Is it like a real head unit (improving sound and adding real bluetooth functionality) or is it just working like a tablet?

[@humancode]

it's real

[@davidga6272]

If you already have original phone instalattion (microphone) can the screen use it? when using carplay for example?

[@humancode]

Yes

[@bernardchan67]

Does it not require you to plug the android to the oem aux port for sound?

[@humancode]

It sound works when you choose aux input from default radio, but to connect android you get a wire that extends default plug to 2 outputs, one goes to standart, other one to android

[@Vexzun]

I basically installed my screen and you know the wire power harness which you show at 6:50. I broke the yellow wire within the fuse box when fitting the wires all in as i was done. But i can't seem to find the wire ANYWHERE online even aliexpress or ebay or Amazon. I even tried reaching the company which sent me the screne and they said they're on New years break. DO you know where i'd be able to find this Power harness wire since its the same in the video?

[@humancode]

not sure to be honest, would try to contact resellers and ask them if they can sell the harness seperately
