hgreen Member 8 Member For: 13y 7m 19d Posted 19/01/12 08:24 AM Share Posted 19/01/12 08:24 AM Just installed the boosted aux kit from ASL Automedia in my BA. Works a charm. Volume is the exact same as the CD volume. And there is also adjustable gain on the little amp to match it if needed. Good sound quality. Pretty close to CD quality except loses out some bass just a tiny bit. But Could correct that with the audio settings on the ICC or maybe the EQ on my ipod.

Can't seem to get it through the gaps and not sure if there is an easier way without removing the ICCAlso, the double sided tape they gave me was sheet. Even after cleaning the spot it was going to stick on, placed it there, held it for about 20s then it fell straight off.Ended up using a cable tie to one of the beams behind the ICC Edited 25/01/12 11:12 PM by Ciaran Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1600dave Donating Members 872 Member For: 14y 5d Posted 25/01/12 11:27 PM Share Posted 25/01/12 11:27 PM I just removed the tissue box section and used a torch so I could see easier and fed it through. There isn't much room but its not too hard as the cable are relatively stiff.I used cable ties for mine too. Hows your sound quality? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
