Here’s what the completed connections will look like:

 

PLEASE NOTE:

 When making these connections, please keep in mind that the wires at the original BMW 

harness are twisted in pairs.  These pairs MUST remain together when making your connections since there 

may be multiple instances of the same wire color and there would be no way to identify which wire is 

appropriate for which connection if the wires are separated.  

4.

Double-check your connections! 

 With the variety of wire colors and the number of wires present 

in this area of the trunk, it’s easy to make a mistake.  Before going any further, it’s absolutely worth 

your time to insure that you’ve made the right connections.  Go over the connections you’ve made 

one more time being sure to verify colors are correctly matched and correct any mistakes, if 

present.

5.

Go ahead and plug in your RCA cables into the LOC, and then clean up your work with a couple of 

the supplied wire tires. This will not only make your install look nice, but ensure that all connections 

remain solid over time.

Preparing the trunk for the enclosure installation

You’ll notice that we’ve sent two sets of enclosure mounting hardware, one set for fold down seats and the 

other set for non fold down seats.
