Hi,
I was referred to this site by a member; hopefully someone is able to help as I'm a borderline car audio-phobe...
I don't own an e30 (I've owned one, if that counts!), rather I own an 89 e34 (Alpina B10 3.5), and I want to install a BMW Business CD Head Unit for aesthetic and insurance purposes. It currently has an after market HU.
I purchased the BMW Business HU, and my understanding was that, although for a 91+ model year, with an adaptor, it would work in my 89.
The stereo install who tried to do the job recently told me it can't be done, as upon the removal of the aftermarket deck, he states that, unbeknownst to me, a seperate BMW amp, which won't work with the BMW Business, as the BMW Business has its own integral but much less powerful amp.
My questions:
1. Does this make sense?
2. Can the BMW Business CD HU be made to work? If so, how?
Thanks,
Chris
