You don’t randomly happens to know how to run cable past the firewall? Such
as a + wire to a subwoofer amp?
Without going under the pedals or drill a hole?
adorable
Of course his asian
i cant even solder kid ur da best
Wow! Didn’t he do well? :)
haha, great video and idea to get your son involved and teach him something
practical! +1
i feel like he is reading from the bottom of the camera like the news
reporters do? lol but i mean great kid. I couldn’t read as fast as he reads
in his age
This just became my favorite youtube video of all time.
He’ll be running the store in less the ten years smart kid, Asians kids
make US kids look dumb
Smart kid. I was lucky to even know how to break things at that age. I’d
have him trained to do oil changes and tune-ups in no time. ☺
Did you need a radio code for the new unit?
Re: “He is Asian! This doesn’t count..” Ha ha h..Yes I agree…those kids
ave been wiring electronics even from inside their mother’s womb! Yes they
are that good! :-)
dat kid is epic. Already done your homework? or been learning english
language before recording? probably learn english in 5 min before video..
:D
im trying to uninstall one from a 97 do i need to take any of the daash off?
youre son gone have a good job at a BMW dealer;) nice vid:D
He is Asian! This doesn’t count
I am most impressed with your son…very astute. A stereo installation on
an E36 is super easy…kudos to BMW for that. It’s a whole different
ballgame when you have to remove the bulk of the dash and get into adding
amps, caps, subs..etc. I am going to change out my stock head unit on my
328i soon. Was there nothing other than the harness you needed? Nothing
extra for DIN fitment? Great video!
wow im fucking 21 years old and I dont know how to do this shit, I’m
embarrassed that your son knows how to do this and I dont and im a grown
ass man, you got one smart ass kid man, send him props for me.
no lie this video helped me hahaha
I’m looking to buy a 97′ convertible 328i and the only two issues were a
broken radio and the AC needs recharging. The fact that this 8 year old
easily replaced the radio pretty much sealed the deal for me.
your son has the best installation video ive seen on youtube!! thank you
@b18k4705 Can you somehow take a few pics and upload it somewhere?
@eevwbulldawg19 It’s defective
Thanks, I hope this works. I got nervous when I started reading about
airbag warning while installing a radio! Looks like it should be easy nuff!
Great video, your son is a bright young man. Is he interested in
electronics? Could be the next Bill Gates or Steve Jobs!!! What wrench is
used to get the stock radio out? Where can I find one? Mine isn’t a regular
screwdriver
you didn’t show how hard it is to get that connector off the back of the
unit. once i connected the new harness, i also could not get that piece to
clip back on because the it would not fit on the harness completely. other
than these 2 lil issues, i loved the video. i knew what to expect during my
installation and it turned out fine. thank you.
What a champ
Damn your kid was so cute and erudite! I love watching this video ’cause it
brings a big smile to my face. …. And I need to replace my radio too. Lol
your son is awesome! and extremely helpful
Im looking for a diversity adapter so I can get both antennas to work. Any
ideas?
Wow, your kid is so cute, wish my son was into cars at all. Excellent video
🙂
I got one off of ebay.
it will be much easyer if you use BMW to ISO adapter 😀
Wow. I just broke my stereo because of this kid. Thanks.
i have a 1998 bmw e36 318i and the stereo is just like yours what i dont
get is that the harness at the back is diffrent to yours so im not able to
connect any wires… or match any wires to my stereo please help regards
if i connect the blue bmw wire to the white wire of the radio set, do i
connect the white bmw wire to the radio set? P.S i have not bought a radio
set, so i do not know if this is a valid question. I’d like to try fixing
my own radio ;D
Good job man very smart of u
cutest kid
Blue and white wire tip, very much needed
Sweet…….!
Lovely Filipino smart kid! Thanks
nice video but if you choose to solder the harness then it is way better to
use heat shrink rather than electrical tape because cars are constantly
thermal cycled which may cause the tape to unravel. which could cause a
short and and a headache when you have to replace fuses and fix the wiring
Great stuff, what a pro! Clear and concise, thanks for the help 🙂
If I have found this video earlier, I had spared 10 hours of google search
! THANK YOU VERY MUCH !!!
WHERE WOULD I GET THE HARNESS!!! PLEASE RESPOND
LMFAO
what tool do he use to take out the stereo!!! someone tell me i need help!!
@ViperHHO Everything we needed was in the video. But detaching the harness
from the stock radio will be a struggle. You will have to be very patient
with that
