stereoinstaller1 Posted March 7, 2009 Report Share Posted March 7, 2009 Hi. My name is Luke Fisher. I am an installer at Car Toys with 28 years inside of dashboards. I am a BMW nut (E30s in specific, but love them all) and am awaiting my AVIC-F500BT from 6th ave electronics. Looking forward to getting some hack/mods, and helping answer install questions. It seems there are quite a few pros on here already (duh, right?) but if I can help, let me know! I am a big contributor on www.r3vlimited.com, if any of you care to get involved in the E30 scene. Thanks! Luke Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pnp1983 Posted April 2, 2009 Report Share Posted April 2, 2009 Hey Luke i need some install help, I just ordered the AVIC-F500BT and ND-G500 for my 03 330ci, and was wondering if i can install the ND-G500 (which is a amp that enbles u to hardwire the f500bt) to my stereo which is factory harmon kardon. I am afraid of blowing the factory amp. I was thinking of installing a PAC OEM 2 to bring back the signal to preamp. Is this a good idea? But then I am afraid of distorting the signal to the speakers, which will be amplifed by ND-G500 and then de-amplifed, and then re-amplifed by the factory amp. Or would i be fine with out the PAC? Any help i can get would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! Paul Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stereoinstaller1 Posted April 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 Paul, if your E90/92 has an AUX input, I would hardwire the F500 into the port. Maybe plug the thing in to try it, live with it for a week and then complete the install after you are sure you like it! Luke Quote Link to post Share on other sites
