Sweet vid! I like how factory everything looks.

I have the Torque App myself. When you scan for codes, it’s pretty good, but doesn’t beat an handheld scan tool for the OBD2 port. Besides scanning for codes, it has awesome gauge setups.

Loving the videos mate keep them coming

The unit is cool and on my upgrade list... Nice one!

Great video my friend!!!! And dang I just noticed ur over a 100k now lol glad to be one of your first couple 100 subscribers lol!!, enjoyed the install bro it looks factory 😎👍

Can you do a review on it and how you like it now? Really interested and definitely enjoying the e46 m3 content! Love the channel!

Wow it's a touch screen. You guys are always doing some great stuff to make days better for your viewers!

Excellent video! Bout to do this in my e46

Always check before re-installing 😎👍👍

The latest version (android 9.0) has tons more functions. Can't believe it costs under $300. The torque app is dope too. I have reads for speed, revs, coolant temp, air intake temp, throttle/accel, load, MAF, volts, fuel flow, spd diff (gps vs car)

I bought an e46 from the scrap yard and it came with this head unit and a backup camera too. I bought another e46 that’s a manual that I’m gonna swap the head unit into, pretty cool head unit and can play movies lmao

Duuuude, the new unit looks really good! Like it came out of the factory this way

I left my gps antenna in the dash and it worked just fine! In case you wanted a cleaner look

You got pretty lucky... looks like someone had already installed the Navigation/HVAC relocation kit. Or maybe the car had navigation or even another android head unit but was removed before being sold? It's why nothing fit there before and why the HVAC unit fit so well. Might wanna let your viewers know since that bracket is about $100. Otherwise the HVAC unit will be a little loose and have a tiny hole on each bottom corner.

@Alfredo Burbano were you able to find it? I bought a relocation kit but if I can just make it fit like he did in the video then I might not need the relocation kit??

Great video! 💥

Evan I’m pretty sure there’s an app it’s like a tuner base studio that you can read the parameters of your motor like boost and all others my friend has it in his car👍😎

Aahh only if this video came a few days earlier! I just ordered a pioneer touch screen. Oh well I just looked and my kit is plug in play too so no biggies. Looks good Evan!!!

Mine was plug and play but Bluetooth sound doesnt work it connects but no sound

These Android head units are pretty slick, I have an older model in my E46 as well. At the very least I'd suggest Twilight for auto-dimming via time/sunrise/sunset/GPS, as it really makes a big difference once setup. Obviously Torque is a wonderful addition with the ability to read/clear codes and show live data; the sensor refresh rates over Bluetooth aren't phenomenal but it's plenty usable (the gauge widgets are handy too). A backup camera is also a nice easy upgrade; they make ones that replace the license plate light, and a wireless transmitter that can easily be spliced into the reverse lights. I also use NovaLauncher to clean up the main interface with AudioGlow as a live wallpaper and the PowerAmp Widget fullscreen using translucent album art; it looks really nice but it requires Malaysk's custom rom to auto-start PowerAmp and integrate it with the steering wheel controls. On that note. If the unit supports it, moving to Malaysk's custom rom offers a bunch of convenience features like auto-dimming based on sunsrise/sunset/time/GPS built in, the ability to edit stock functions, improved UI, as well as general bug fixes. Simple programs like HeadUnit are integrated that can automatically lower the volume at startup, increase the volume as speed increases, and reduce volume when the reverse camera is active. He really does great work to bring everything together! In any case, they're plenty functional in stock form, but there's always options if you like to tinker. Hope you enjoy it :)

but how does it work with android auto? right now i have the grom BT and i use android auto on my phone and hands free google assistant on my nexus 6p if you install the android auto app on the head unit and pair an android phone with the android auto app on it via bluetooth does it act like an android auto headunit without plugging it with USB or would you need to sideload a different .apk of android auto or is it not even possible i want to know if i can pair my phone an still use hands free google assistant for navigation ,pandora ,calls,and smart home control through the radio and even get it to run on the radio screen like an android auto headunit

Most aftermarket stereos need an antenna adapter. They’re super cheap & plug and play. Metra makes them for almost every vehicle.

that intro hard af

Cool video! Nice trick with using a welding wire

head unit also can be your digital booster,temp&O2 gauge if u have the sensors plug

did the same sort of thing with my 95 e38, thats a fun install :D looks better in the e46 as a lot more popular so better fit.

sounds like a pretty sweet deal! Haven't had the chance to get mine yet, but by the looks of it, it seems like an awesome addition to the E46! Appreciate your feedback and input! 👍

Dude what’s kinda watch is that it’s so dope!

Old video, but it seems to me that the AC unit fits so well because it originally was there, and the loose connectors behind the radio previously probably connected to the original navigation system that this car had already had. The loose antenna cable was probably going to an already installed GPS antenna.

So which head unit should we all be buying. Almost every one of these install videos follows up with it stopped working pretty soon after.. My old tape deck looks like it's from pre history even if my phone is all hooked up.

Hi there! Nice vid, I see that you have Harman Kardon, don't you need the extra wiring extension from the HU to the rear to make it work properly?

the installation video on the product page shows you how to install the radio.

Don’t forget using lossses file formats in your system (flac, wav etc) you will feel the differences from mp3. Have fun engine sound and new system

Got a very similar head unit in my mk2 Audi TT here in the U.K. but it’s just a different brand fits perfectly works really well very happy with it suits any car they go in as it looks factory! The torque pro app is really good it has my boost afr and everything you need that has a sensor I really recommend getting a OBD 2 Bluetooth connector for it

"We now have so much room for activities " dats from Will Ferrell 😂😂

That's dope

4:57 I think you could actually get a radio with a big screen and gps from factory, so that's why it snaps in well there, because with that radio, it's there from factory.

The cars had a Pioneer aftermarket flip out screen with a hide away tuner probably hidden behind the glove box and the BMW antenna lead will be there

I'm about to put a radio like that in my car, but is it still any good a year later?

wanted to ask if your still happy with the unit .hey an also what size tyres you have on that thing?cheers chrisso

The only thing I don't like about these Android head units is that they're not compatible with Satellite Radio. I've contacted several of them and asked if I can hook up SiriusXM and they all said-negative.

I wonder were you placed the GPS receiver, i also own a BMW E46 facelift coupe and placed 2 android car headunits by myself in my car. Every time i see such install video, i see people install that gps receiver at the bottom of the side of the pillar behind the air ventilation. There is a much better place to mount that antenna, which is behind the instrument panel, belive it or not, there is a spot that fits the gps antenna and sits very deep in to the dachboard, and because its all from plastic, the reception is very very good. If you want to place it on that spot, just pull your steeringwheel towards you, lower the steeringwheel, than unscrew the 2 screws (i think its a torx T20) gently push the instrument panel so that it tilts a little, grab it and pull it gentle towards you, you can put that instrument panel aside and you will see the spot where you can place the gps antenna with double side tape from 3M. it's super easy. (my apologies if i made grammar and spell errors)

Hi, where do I get the can bus adapter from? I have this unit but no steering control functions? Thanks

but why do you have to do the microphone when on the unit itself is a internal mic? or it does not work?

What did you do with the HVAC controls? Do they plug into the Seicane?

Does it still work? Can you give an update...I have a 2002 M3 E46 and I am looking to make the same changes....

I have a question. You obviously have Harman Kardon system on your car. Does the surround button on your console work with the android head unit? Do you need different wires?

How is the audio quality with this unit? Some of them seem to be hit or miss

Is everything will work on the stair wheel you can use them or the dont work hope you answer

oooooh baby! love that m3. Id really love to see more carbon fiber added on to this like maybe a CSL carbon Trunk?

If I follow everything you do in the video will my connect 😬?

Just got that same unit, have to say the install was easy, but using the same harness on my 2002 m3 the Xtrons buttons do not illuminate, I can go to the menu and change the buttons colors but they soon turn off. Also can't use my steering wheel volume controls. I assume it is because that the additional 10 pin connector that plugged into the original stereo is not connected ?

Never been a fan of seicane, but it looks clean
