    5 series radio

    redrick567 posted a topic in BMW 5 Series Forum
    Hi, I have a 2001 530D touring with no radio. I tried to fit a Sony with the BMW conversion cable. It powered up but no sound. It turns out I have a CD multichanger and Amp in the boot, which apparently means complicated cabling changes to get something like the Sony to work. I assume this is because the Sony already has an Amp in it? Apologies, my knowledge of auto sound systems is a little thin. Do all 5 series of that vintage have a separate Amp, so if I get any 5 series radio off ebay it will work? Or do some have radios without a remote Amp so I would need to be careful what I buy? Any advice on this topic would be appreciated Many thanks Rick
