Hello-

I have a 2010 550i and I am installing an aftermarket sound system integrated into the iDrive. I am running a harness from forum member Technic (who suggested I ask on this forum) from the iDrive to the trunk where the new amps are located. I was wondering if anyone who has run cables from the iDrive to the trunk had a route that worked well. Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Brett

I ran mines thru the center of the car. You will need to remove the passenger and back seat.

I heard that may not be a great idea. Apparently you can pick up the shaft whine too easily there.
