I would like to swap out my cassette for the single in dash cd player that came in later e39's. BSW has a new factory unit for about $430, i need an adapter harness because my car is a 97. The harness sells for $130. E-bay has factory cd players for about half the amount but i have not found a cheaper source for the harness. Has anyone done this swap?. Did it work ok?. The tone controls are different on the cd player, will i still have control?. Is there a cheaper way to buy or make the adapter harness?. Thanks in advance for any advice.
