[QUOTE="zidee, post: 474674, member: 20151"] I installed Hualingan on my year 2000 525 e39 last week. Here are some preliminary report. I though of DIY but decided to do it at at SS2 accessories shop instead as i can wait to see the immediate result. The shop has done E46 installation before but my E39 is their first so the installer have to do a bit of fact finding during installation. Wiring not a problem to him but more towards placing the unit the right way. Took him about 3 hours to complete. Feature wise, I am very happy although I will be more happy if some of the features like : 1. Auto dim or one touch dim when driving at night. Like a screen saver. Does not distract while driving or other passenger who want to have a good sleep. 2. TV reception rather poor. Perhaps due to quality of the antenna. Perhaps this HINET H-100 brand ( [url]http://www.mudah.my/HINET+H1+100+Car+TV+Antenna+with+Booster+Rated-7554546.htm[/url] ) is better. Claim to be highly rated at RM89. 3. Bluetooth phone mic not clear enough for the other parties we talk to hear. Perhaps need to installed another 3rd party mic like one of the forumner did to solve it. Wonder whether need to do some wiring or just plug in using standard jack. Someone may be able to highlight this. Pairing with BT is a breeze...great ! 4. LCD screen rather glare during day time but look good at night. Perhaps need a 'hood' like typical LCD in newer model of BMW. I also need to look for a new LCD screen protector. Perhaps the one with 'anti glare' will help. Currently I have not taken out the protective layer yet. Anybody can suggest where can i purchase a 800 x 480 screen protector? 5. I could not find FADER function. But the R/L function for audio is great so I can play karaoke MTV and toggle the R/L. So far it supports .AVI but not others. I have no issue as I can just convert it easily to AVI. 6. the VIDEO PLAYER does not have 'time slider' function so you don't know the length of the video file and not able to slide to desired time location. You do have fast forward/back function though but it will be nicer to have time slide function. 7. USB/SD file list display is rather not attractive. Perhaps there is a better skin to address this. Anyone has the solution? 8. Reverse camera picture quality rather grainy. To low resolution perhaps. That is all i have for now. Overall I'm very happy and have been enjoying it. One of my best investment on my E39. Regards [/QUOTE]
