Jimbob789 1 Report post Posted May 2, 2015 So just purchased a 95 328i coupe manual, happy as with it so far except the audio side of things. Its gotta custom boot install in the boot (came with the car) and came with a headunit (Alpine CDA 9886r) that I wanna change out. I've pulled it out and if you see the attached images it has the thick green wires coming out the back. You can't unplug them out the back but has connectors to reattach them. My question is if I buy a more modern alpine headunit, will it have these wires coming out the back? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neal 546 Report post Posted May 3, 2015 These are quite a decent head unit from a sound quality pov. Are you wanting something with carplay or similar ? Either way , you should be able to wire in the latest into your exiting setup. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jimbob789 1 Report post Posted May 3, 2015 Just something a bit more modern looking with Bluetooth, aux, iPhone control etc... I'm looking at another alpine unit on trademe with 3 preamp outputs so hopefully should be a straight swap Thanks guys Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
