I could just put it there but the access isn't good.
Already did the programming for adding the cdc and programming
out the SOS errors . Didn't do VO coding only coded it out/in on
the Kombi , ProRadio looks like it will work that way.
I would like to put somewhere where I can change out the usb drives
easily I am thinking under the dash in the glove area.
Thank you for this.

On my lunch break I checked out the wiring, and found if you disassemble the composite connectors the MOST connector will plug directly into the unit. The BMW CD Changer power connector will likely have to be cut and resoldered to the streaming box power connector. To your point I think fuse 38 ties to the CD Changer. Oddly the TIS (01 29 0 409 352) say nothing about installing a fuse. I already did the MULF2 upgrade so USB already (technically) exists in the center console- I just have to run the AUX and USB wire (but that's for a different thread).

The next issue is how/where to mount it. The corner in the trunk has so much soft sound-deadening material and not many decent mounting points.
