Ok guys and girls. Due to some requests I'm adding the whole project log here as well.
As you will notice, I'm a photo freak, but I guess it's not a bad thing in this kind of subject :D. Also, you will notice that some of the project pics are not only about the project itself, but about some other things as well :lol:. Older members already know my little helper, and those of you who don't, please don't take him (and the fact that I'm using so much time in photoing this process) too seriously. After all, I think this forum needs a little cheer up ;). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nov 4, 2012 Some stuff that I removed and collected from the ex-car - Focal Solid 1 mono amplifier for the subwoofer + remote controller - Hi/Low converter harness - +12V and ground cables - new iDrive knob - full interior LED kit (from Motorcepts) http://sphotos-e.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...10886905_n.jpg -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nov 4, 2012 This is my co-driver Flat Eric. He's a true car enthusiast. Probably a bit short-tempered, though haha! http://sphotos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...97961192_n.jpg Here he's checking the CF side grilles that we saved from my previous car. http://sphotos-d.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...58666798_n.jpg Yes, they seem to be allright. http://sphotos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...71993290_n.jpg Fits like a glove, Eric thinks! http://sphotos-e.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...53788634_n.jpg -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

My winter wheel setup came from my ex car (530d): - AvantGarde M359 9x19 all around - Nokian Hakkapeliitta 7 245/40 R19 They got a nice protecting treatment before the winter; two layers of Finish Kare 1000P sealant. http://sphotos-d.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...30624719_n.jpg http://sphotos-g.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...20237244_n.jpg http://sphotos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...16385841_n.jpg http://sphotos-c.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...88887594_n.jpg -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

Some new parts arrived. I'm not even sure if he can read lol! http://sphotos-c.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...70876267_n.jpg Sometimes he gets too excited! http://sphotos-e.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...83186836_n.jpg Hold it just for few seconds so that I get a pic, ok!!! http://sphotos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...69040415_n.jpg Yes, you're right Eric, they're OEM pedals. http://sphotos-d.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...72809894_n.jpg I like it too! http://sphotos-c.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...04762211_n.jpg Feeling like a winner, ha? http://sphotos-e.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...14941863_n.jpg A BIG cup of coffee for him (notice the official BMW mug)... http://sphotos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...88610721_n.jpg ...was maybe bit too much! What a rage against the carton! http://sphotos-g.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...35606393_n.jpg Sweet! CF grilles! I'm not sure if I like the protruding bars, though... http://sphotos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...29106690_n.jpg No, Eric. Ripping stuff apart isn't always the one and only solution... http://sphotos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...93813412_n.jpg So you're suggesting we could use OEM bars with it? Hmmm... possibly. http://sphotos-d.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...39752363_n.jpg I think I like the gloss black badge better...? What about you? http://sphotos-h.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...61098296_n.jpg And who's going to install that all? http://sphotos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...04756080_n.jpg Oh...I see. http://sphotos-g.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...90268419_n.jpg -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

Then I needed the MP3 feature to be enabled on CCC. I got this done with NCSExpert and with some help from a friend of mine. Eric was pissed because he was left outside from this. http://sphotos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...87297709_n.jpg -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

- "Hmmm... Everything seems to be like it should be with this package." Eric thinks. http://sphotos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...95789878_n.jpg - "I know these things you know!" http://sphotos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...97430320_n.jpg - "Eric, please let me help you so that you don't brake anything." - "Get out of here messing things up!" http://sphotos-g.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...28381700_n.jpg - "I can do this..." http://sphotos-d.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...05097258_n.jpg - "Haha! Like this!" http://sphotos-g.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...08299835_n.jpg - "Ummh... what's this cable?" http://sphotos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...71699962_n.jpg - "It's an optical..." - "Now get the h*ll out of my sight you!" http://sphotos-h.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...44698314_n.jpg - "Don't get upset, Eric... no need to." - "Keep it! Keep it all you moron!" http://sphotos-c.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...92870850_n.jpg - "God d**n it!!!" http://sphotos-e.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...02036821_n.jpg ...Later that night.... http://sphotos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...83625500_n.jpg -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
Dec 1, 2012
Ordered a Stage I speaker set from Bavarian Soundwerks. This is my second set so I got a great deal! http://sphotos-d.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...28632512_n.jpg -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
Dec 2, 2012
Installing iPod interface. A short description about what I did. OEM 6cdc in its place. The first thing is to remove the covering plate. Just open the thumb screws on left and right. http://sphotos-e.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...70990549_n.jpg Then open the little TORX screws under the tiny plastic flaps. http://sphotos-c.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...05485991_n.jpg Pulling the cdc out. http://sphotos-d.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...31095895_n.jpg The harness removed. http://sphotos-h.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...75058806_n.jpg OEM interface was just a plug&play! http://sphotos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...35132930_n.jpg Getting it fixed with the material that came with the interface. http://sphotos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...44633356_n.jpg Not the prettiest thing probably, but holds! http://sphotos-g.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...22277566_n.jpg The plastic cover put back. I might order a smaller cover to hide the interface. http://sphotos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...85859105_n.jpg Everything works like it should! No other coding needed than enabling the MP3 on the CCC. http://sphotos-c.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...95787131_n.jpg -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
