The OFFICIAL DIY Radar Hardwire guide with PICS for E34's!!!!!!!

Finally got around to doing this today on my ‘94 525i and have found this to be the easiest way to make the correct connections, though I am sure there are other ways, this way was the best way for me. I have not found a DIY for our E34’s so here it is, in its simplest form… ENJOY!!!
  1. Use Flathead to remove center lights


  2. Use Flathead to remove Moonroof panel


  3. Cut and strip both end of Brown wire as seen in pic below


  4. Connect ground wire of radar detector to brown wires, twist them as shown below and finally wrap them with electrical tape


  5. Use Flathead to remove passenger Vanity lights


  6. Disconnect adapter from Vanity lights and strip the Power end of radar detector wire and insert into hole as seen in pic below


  7. Reconnect adapter with wire inside the hole as seen in above pic (I did it this way so not to cut anymore wires)


  8. Replace everything and here is your finished product
