Q: QuestionI have a 2005 BMW 325i. Can I install this receiver without having to cut or modify the connector harness/plug? (This is so I can revert back to the original bmw radio if I sell the car).

Asked 7 years ago by BMWFan.

• A:Answer Buy the connector harness at best buy for your car. Have an associate look up the right model for your BMW. It will make your stereo convert to the actual BMW plug, so all BMW wires remain intact.
