    I’m not the person to ask about sound quality. My speakers are connected directly to the amp inside the Avin, and all the factory wiring harness/modules/mounting brackets have been weight saved. The remaining speakers in my car were chosen by weight, not sound quality.

    Bruh, pick up a new main board for like $15 bucks on amazon.

    No more AVIN 4? The widescreen one looks pretty good and a few retailers have that version.

    Yes— that’s in use in that photo.

    Ha. I woke up early this morning, so snuck off to work on the car, still in pajamas... and the Avin seemed like a clean project to do, while not wearing car work clothes.

    The M3 is probably, sadly, going to live this summer/fall in a storage unit, in go to the track mode (track tires in the back seat, track bins in the trunk)... and likely only come out for track events. The M3 wagon will be handling the fun driving this year. I won't have garage space during the construction phase, and don't want to leave the M3 coupe parked outside...
    totally understand mate 😘

    Do you have a house-build thread? It'd be interesting to see that process.
