One more Head Unit Thread - With Specific Application Questions
I recently picked-up a mint 2013 335IS E93 with 5,000 miles. Love everything about the car but want to update the radio for a more modern experience. After countless hours researching my options, I think I know what I want and need, but seeking advice from those in the know or those who have tackled this project.
My car has Logic 7 Premium stereo without iDrive, see pic of center stack here;
I’ve settled on the Eonon 7” HU as I want the most factory looking option as possible. I’m willing to give up the latest 9” version to retain the OEM look. I also added the optical fiber decoder box and CarPlay dongle. Here’s a picture of my shopping cart;
Lastly, I’ll add some sort of truck handle camera similar to the one below;
That set-up, I believe, will accomplish what I’m after. So here are my questions for the experts;
1 - Am I on the right track?
2 - Will I get the SOS warning in the dash?
3 - Will I get any other malfunctions?
4 - Will I retain all OEM functions in steering wheel, etc?
5 - What happens to the Park Assist button at the bottom of my current stack? I think the new set-up uses the entire space?
6 - I’m assuming sound quality will be at least as good as OEM?
7 - Anything else I’m missing?
Thanks in advance for all your help.
