BMW 7 series audio install

Still waiting on the subs and amps. Speaker wire should be here tomorrow so I can at least get 2 of the 3 speakers installed in the front and the two in the rear doors.

 
lol why do you hate wire taps?
and did you tap into the wires BEFORE the factory amp or AFTER it?

looking clean so far. good quipment and should be a good build at the end.
Taps I just do not trust. I went after the factory amp. But after talking to some people I will not need the JL nor the MTX. I will take pics and explain tonight.

 
Today got a good deal done.

Dynamat was installed

The factory head unit outputs a pre out signal. One that is clean enough to be used for new amps. All that is needed is to use those wires and wire in rca female connectors and than run them to your new amps. The only pain is finding those wires. The bmw amp outputs 12 channels of audio "I believe that is what I read" so even with a JL clean sweep you would still not be able to get a full pass signal from any of the wires.

 
Today I got a few things done even though it was raining.

One of the head rest tv's in.
