Nice work. How difficult was it to figure out? Did you have any help or a book?

It wasn't that bad honestly but I really like things like this and I picked up quickly. You can honestly take apart the entire interior of you BMW with a Phillips head screw driver, a flat head screw driver, and a socket wrench. I had to look up some parts on the internet and had to call Alpine once (apparently on BMWs the Blue wire goes to the blue white wire not the other blue wire). But other than that if went pretty well, except for the placing in of the head unit. Holy crap BMW gives you NO extra space back there, its like trying to fit a square block in a round hole, but you'll get it eventually if you just mess with it. I did have to cut a piece of plastic in the back out to give some more room, but it was a small piece.

Oh yeah the amp is mounted onto the side of the box with the ever reliable bungy cord in the pic. I have everything screwed down now.

Sure as soon as I get off my ass and take some. I'm scheduled to photograph some bands concert tomorrow so when I got my camera all out and such I'll take some pics.
