    Routing of the AUX cable depends if you have 6FL (USB) input.
    If you have 6FL (USB), the sound has to be routed to the AUX port.
    If you don't have 6FL (USB), the sound is routed from the head unit directly via fiber optics to the sound module in the trunk. 😊

    I just got the new 10.25 CCC Xtrons unit for my E90, model QAB12CCB12E92. It is very similar to this one but is a 10.25" screen made for iDrive, but the big difference is it doesn't have a snapdragon CPU, instead it has Cortex octa-core with 8 gb ram. Im trying to figure out how to get to the advanced settings because it seems like it maybe be hidden on this unit. Overall I'm very happy with it. I ordered a 12.3 Avin unit at the same time so i could compare them, but honestly this xtrons was so good, I canceled the Avin before it even arrived because I feel like this is the perfect size and feel like the whole package is pretty polished. I did have a small issue with it rattling after install, but I was able to take it out and readjust it tighter into the dash ans fixed the rattle issue. Just a dew small options I would like to be able to customize to make it perfect.

    How does this non idrive head unit hold up? I currently have one but there are times where apply car play will not connect at it. When it does it takes forever and will sometimes disconnect or pause my music. Another thing I noticed is that it greatly reduces the sound quality of my music. Sometimes I wish I had never installed it because Id rather not have anything than something that sometimes works and sometimes doesn't (especially since you have to make a hole in your dash).
