    if its a bmw one id presume its going to fairly easy

    aftermarket ones ive heard can be a nightmare, you have to move the heater settings to.

    i had enough trouble with my single din flip out dvd player, surprisingly there isnt much room behind the 3 series dash

    Welcome to the club,

    I cant help you with your question, but as Andy said there aint much room behind there.

    I had to remove my CD player yesterday and its a little tight in there.

    if you have trouble pulling wires thru, you can just about access the back of it if you take the glove box out, thats a easy job to do though

    factory standard ones should be easy enough to fit and click straight in, as others have said its a little tight but nothing too majorly difficult!

    get some pics up throughout!
