My amplifier is not working properly, but i had no idea how to check that. I thought i have to remove all the covers behind the seats but thanks to your video, it seems like I won't have to do unnecessary works. It's surprisingly easy to remove that cover and i don't know why i was so worried about that lol Thanks again!

I saw another video with the bosch unit and they needed to take the entire screen and mid console out, in this video you only seem to put in some wiring between the seats. Am I correct in thinking the harman system is much easier to install? I have the meridian sound system, is that harman or bosch? Or just have to take the panel out and look for black or grey?
@philscars9 ай бұрын
Yes I think the Bosch is more complex, just check between the seats to see which you have

Hey, great video! I have a 2014 F Type S. I dont have the control unit behind the glovebox like on your car. My car just has an extra storage box that swings open. Do you know where i could find the computer that controls the screen and speakers on my car so i can get carplay too? Thanks!

@@philscars The cover between the seats is just stuck in. In my F Type Cabriolet from 2016 there is a storage compartment. Unfortunately you can't just pull it out, I assume you have to remove the entire cover behind the seats? Best regards from Germany, Tom
