It's an e53 X5. would something like the Kenwood KOS-A200 work for having a subwoofer/amp output?

thanks a lot guys for the help. Would there be any other way for me to more adequately add a subwoofer to the OEM unit? I was thinking of some sort of external controller that could power the amp? I'm not sure if there is such a thing, but I really don't want to have to run a sub through my...

well they do sell a bezel, and it could look better than original picture I posted. I realize it would be a huge request to fill the entire space, but is there anything larger than 7" wide unit in a double din? I was looking for something that perhaps had the 7" screen with controls on the...

yeah that's aftermarket, this is my current factory unit which I believe is 11x4.4

no, that picture is more of an example of what I'm trying to avoid . What I'd like is something that takes up the entire space, like the OEM unit does. I'd like to stay under $1000

OK, so I've been searching for a while for a large double din head unit. I'm not too particular in what I need for functions. I only want one that will look decent in my dash, and have good sound/cd quality. The problem is my current factory double din stereo is so wide, nothing seems to look...

friend has it and it performs well, great sound and great look.

amp was blown /thread

hey guys.. having a weird problem with my amp. It's been working fine for the past 2 years since I bought it. Today I had to swerve around something sharply, and it seemed like my sub went out. I figured a wire went loose, but it wasn't exactly out. I checked all the wiring and everything seems...

Hey guys. I had an eclipse head unit for a few years and I absolutely loved it up until about 2 weeks ago when it was stolen I was impatient and wanted to put something in there just to get some kind of music back and money is also a bit tight for me right now, so I wanted to stay around $100...

thanks guys. let me know if it doesn't show. black piece goes into the head unit, top into the factory wiring, but you probably knew that. I am a bit confused about the the blue wire which just loops itself back in. *edit I just went for it, seems to be working fine.

ok I guess I was just worried about cutting it away from the harness..

yeah it was weird but I needed 2 wiring harnesses, one that plugs into the head unit, and another from that into the factory wires. so there is a blue/white remote wire on the first harness(attached to the head unit). I just want to make sure it's ok to cut into it like this, is it?

yeah it does but I had to use a wiring harness so as I said I'm not using the original HU's wires. Is it ok to split the wire anywhere to splice it with the amp remote wire?

I just installed a new head unit, but I had to use a wiring harness for my car. The original wiring for the head unit had the remote wire seperate and clear as day, but now with the harness it's just part of the block of other wires. Am I supposed to cut it out of the block and splice it with...
