The color key selection was a big plus once i found the exact colors as my interior lights. running two sets of rca cables to a sub amp and running all four speakers of this works perfectly and sounds great. Settings and the features are easy to get the hang of and fine tune your setup. Accessory option KCA-IP202 is required if you would like to hookup a iphone which pulls the audio through the charge cable versus plugging a aux cord to the top of your iphone.

This radio works great in my 2003 330ci... but there is a catch..you have to have a special cord in order to use a ipod with it (KCA-IP202) make sure you get that as well.

Customer Testimonial

I found the best deal right here for my car audio speakers and could not be happier. The shipping was quick and the items were just as described. This was a very pleasant shopping experience where I got a great product for a great price and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for electronics.
