I have another question? I'm replacing the stock radio with a Clarion in-dash dvd player. I purchased the radio, dash converter for the radio, the Wiring Harness, and all the other parts that I need.. The problem I'm having is that there is no sound with the new unit. I know what the problem is, that is the speaker wires do not line up or should I say they are not there. Do you know if there are any other wiring kits or the solutions whne replacing the old stock radio/tape unit out.

Repost...I didn't know if you seen it on the other topic you started.

I believe there are two wiring harnesses. One for all the speakers to go to the head unit. And a second one to change the crazy weird German antenna to a north american one. Otherwise you'll never be able to plug your head unit into the antenna.

I put a Clarion touch screen CD player in my 535I but thankfully my brother wired it for me so I didn't have to go through that nightmare.

BTW anyone looking for a 92 535I stock factory tape player I'm your boy!
