Very curious to find out if your unit works properly. I have the non-working A/C, reverse camera that's messed up and the RPM gauge isn't working (speed works). If it's just my unit, I'll likely need a completely new one, with so many things busted.
This is an absolute horribly bad idea. The backup camera is powered by the car, regardless of whether or not you have a head unit installed. If you added MORE power to it, you likely just sent 24v to a 12v camera. I would recommend you revert to stock and confirm you didn't just fry it from overvoltage.
There's no signal from the back camera if that wire is not connected. I only briefly connected it so it would work, but it didn't. It's fine with the stock unit still.
Point is, it's the same wire on the base harness that goes into the CAN bus connector. I agree with you, but it was just to test. There are no instructions for the Premium harness.
No, the Premium wiring harness already hooks up to that by default. Check the pics at http://mustang.rajenki.com/Tesla-style_head_unit/Cables#Premium_model_cables. The green/white wires connect between the two Premium cables and it goes directly into the large connector up top.
Depending on the source of the power It would still be 12V
Yeah, hindsight is 20/20, it'd still be 12v. Brain fart.
I would personally try DHL, and see if there are any savings. Keep in mind it costs him every time he's shipped parts here, which has been 5 times so far. I'm sure the guy is making more than a few bucks off each order, but I have no doubts that having to keep shipping parts is eating into his profit quite a bit. What I would recommend (FWIW) is wait until everyone has their unit installed from the group buys, then anything that has to be returned, ship to 1 person, and put it in the same box, to cut way back on shipping costs. Yes, it will take longer, but it all depends on what you're trying to save, time vs. money.
By the time you buy an X4 used, then pay for an unlock, and a new tune, you're at the new X4 price of $400.
