[QUOTE="thule, post: 480372, member: 14511"] Why do you need to cut a hole or something? Take out the CD changer in your glove compartment and utilise the vacant space :top: u r lucky coz I'm driving my E60 today coz normally I drive Hilux to work. Anyway, will show you the picture on where I install the DVD/MP3, CD player (it's Kenwood btw) From the outside when I open my compartment [URL="[IMG]http://i370.photobucket.com/albums/oo147/leoboonloong/ICE/IMG_0729.jpg[/IMG]"][IMG]http://i370.photobucket.com/albums/oo147/leoboonloong/ICE/IMG_0729.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Close up - this is where the original CD changer supposed to be! notice the USB device there?? Loads and loads of my fav songs inside! Save the hassle of changing CD as the area is quite hard to reach when driving!
