3. Fun part: running fiber optic from the trunk all the way to the dash and loop into the cluster.
4. BMW made the same color wires from Top Hifi to HK so rewiring was pretty easy. Just need to run wires to the rear door panels.
5. Coding: remove the 676 (top hifi) & 679 Subwoofer HiFi System and adding 688.

Last thing to do is the find how to wire the small cooling fan ...
Random question mate, after the install did you manage to get the plastic support frame back in place? I have retrofitted the TRSVC with surround view and since installing it I can't get the plastic support back in as the surround cables foul it. Yours in one of the only threads I've seen with the same setup as me.
You're referring in the trunk? Yes. All nice and tidy, everything was put back in place
