OK - so update for anyone wanting to do this - if you have an earlier E85 with a DSP system - good chance you will need the adapter. Before you order (unlike me) pull your carpet up and look for your connectors. If instead of a 3 pin and 6 pin connector like above....if you have a 3 pin and a coax - you will need to adapter to make this work. I have no 6 pin at all and after lots of searching - I see other with the same issue and why this adapter was made. You also have to tap power and ground with it - so not exactly plug and play like the 3/6 pin set up. Since my amp is in the battery well, I am not sure where I am going to tap acc power from, but I can either run a wire or maybe tap into the BMW assist deal?
I'm sure I'll figure it out - but FYI if you are reading this - check your connectors before you buy!
