    Dynavin Installed



    After 3 weeks of waiting and a night/morning of iinstalling it is all in...for the most part!

    Looks great! Still have to play with a lot of the settings. I only had one issue and that was that I ripped the radio antenna adapter on the back when trying to fit it all in. So temporarily I dont have radio through that. But I can still stream it through my Android for the next couple days. I will get it fixed ASAP though! The Bluetooth/streaming function works really well. I now have hundreds of Greek radio stations in my car. Something I really wanted. The DVD function is really good! Of course I had to put my favorite movie in to try



    And it does make the Harman Kardon sound a little better too. The Nav from what I played with seems decent, it's no Audi MMI (which in my opinion is by far the best audio/nav/bluetooth setup out there) or iDrive but it gets the job done. My favorite part is that it looks 110% OE and is easily reversible at any point

    The install, is really pretty easy. Once all the center parts, stereo and HVAC controls are out of the way it is straight-forward after that. Run the wires for Ipod, rear camera(i didnt want this but it is soooo easy if you wish), USB and bluetooth mic, (I ran this wire to the OE location but didnt have enough wire. I use the built in mic on the unit and it works really really good. Dont even bother running the other mic). The hardest part of all is fitting it into the space. There are sooooooooo many wires that have to fit only on the sides of the unit. There is NO space on the back, this is soo true that the radio antenna wire comes out enough that I bent mine back and it broke. I wasnt too happy, but I can fix it...hopefully. Once it is in, just screw it in and secure, and put all the trim and HVAC controls in place. I got the HVAC relocation trim because I wanted it to look perfect. Others have saved the $70-100 and skipped it, it fits decently without it.

    Anyway I will update it with more information tomorrow and more pics as well

    Thanks a bunch to Ryan (ryankokesh) who helped me a lot with questions before and when installing!
