R56 Update #3

We may have finally gotten to the end of the electrical gremlins after many attempts to fix them. The awesome thing is to do it, I had to install a kick ass sound system. #winning

1) Removed the factory boost head unit

2) Bypassed the HiFi amp

3) Installed a Kenwood  KDC-BT752HD head unit, two 6×9 Kicker CS 3-ways in the rear and two 6.5” Kicker CS 2-ways in the doors for a total of 10 speakers (4 highs, 2 mids, and 4 lows just like OEM). We used all Metra/Axxess Interfaces products to rewire and house these changes.

4) Added some Glowshift gauges to patrol how the engine is doing post thermostat replacement. We added boost, coolant temp, and oil pressure from the black 7 color line.

5) We went back to Cravenspeed for  all the necessary adapters to get the gauges functioning.
