Aftermarket head unit - Basic fitment instruction and wire identities
Posted: Thu Jan 17, 2013 2:01 pm
Hi to all
I have purchased an aftermarket touch screen head unit and a Conversion Extension Lead to go in my E53. The strip down / out of the existing unit and surrounding interior panels has been down with ease, although there are a few questions regarding the installation as there were no basic instructions/ explanations included with the product.
My queries are:-
1. Do the antennas (aerials) need to be positioned in any particular location i.e. as far back as poss. from head unit etc etc....
2. There are 4 wires (see photo), (WHITE, BLACK, YELLOW and WHITE/BLACK) that are part of the extension lead that are not insulated and therefore I assume they require attaching to some other wires, ANY IDEAS WHAT TO??

ALL HELP GREATLY APPRECIATED
REGARDS
