Step-by-step process somewhere? A video?
Need to understand how much of trouble this install is, because the trunk really bugs me. Not even the lack of a button, but the fact that it locks itself with a door slam.
yes I'm working on it.

it's actually not a bad install.

Washed the car up and drove it over to a buddies house to help him start tearing apart his Miata. He is turning it into a track car so we gutted the entire interior, minus the dash, and installed a set of Fortune Auto Coils. I snapped some pics of the car in his driveway before starting on the Miata. I never get tired of looking at this car.

I'm late but: FINALLY someone with some imagination and doing something other than black wheels LOL. I'll be doing the exact same on my Supra. I have them on another of my cars and really like them on it too:

Back on topic, I took Kiiro on a road trip to LA this weekend. It is surprisingly comfortable on the longer drives. I really enjoy how quick it is when it comes to passing traffic. I'm able to get around idiots and on my way with ease. I've said it a few times, but the more I drive this thing, the more I like it.

The specific kit from Bimmertech is the NBT EVO ID6 head unit option with touchscreen. Also, make sure you order the automatic transmission model.

They send two different remote wires along with the kit that I didn't use as the MENU button on our iDrive is what controls the front camera.

I installed the MMI behind the OEM head unit. It's a very tight fit, but there is room when pushed in all the way and vertically to the back. You can tuck all the wires to either side of the console interior. Just take your time and be careful.

The wiring for the front camera itself can just be routed above the driver footwell panel and up through that firewall grommet that everyone uses for the JB4 install.

I had to Dremel out about 2mm of the front grill to fit the camera flush. It's much easier to take the front bumper off to mount and route the wire, but I didn't want to deal with bumper alignment issues as I already did that once in the past and had a couple hours worth of OCD alignment woes.
Thanks for the details! I'll be adding this to the manual so I'll have to wait and see but it was really helpful to read your experience with it - I wouldn't have through you could get away with out removing the bumper for example. Thanks again!

Welp, there goes another $5k in Supra parts.... I am done, I swear I am done buying stuff. Oh wait, one more thing and then I am done. No I take back, 3 more things. Who am I kidding, its never going to be done.
That is what owning an S chassis was like, lol

I’m just shy of 6 months in and I’m very happy with how the car sits. Bimmercode is still on my list and I’ll be set for awhile

I am second guessing it cause it doesn't actually connect back to the intake. Just blows air near it. I thought it was supposed to connect back to it....
