XTRONS - Android head unit upgrade

Hello BMW lovers,

I have used over the years some many tips and advice from the forum and I would like to pay back a bit all that help. As I did not find much help aboput Xtrons unit, I will proceed to update this thread with my experience.

This is my 2nd 135i, the original one was a 2008 manual with Premium HIFI. When I took my 2013 Special Edition one, realized the mistake with the audio system. Now, I have upgraded my 2013 BMW 135i headunit with a brand new unit from Xtrons that I bought at amazon (model PA7981BIP):

My car came originally with HIFI system, which is basically the standard for the US version, I took the opportunitty to add:

- Bimmer-Tech Amp (which is basically an Audio-Tec Fischer PP86DSP)

- Changed all speakers with Harman Kardon versions (adding the missing tweeters in the back)
P/N are:
Rear
65139143121 - Midrange speaker, stereo/HiFi
65139217912 - Harman Kardon tweeter
Front
65136945412 - midrange speaker, stereo HiFi
65139217910 - Harman Kardon tweeter
51337270889 - Harman Kardon cover
51337270890 - Harman Kardon cover

- Changed subs with Audio Tec Fischer MW 8BMW-D:

- Added backup camera from eBay: BMW E82 E88 E84 E90 E91 E92 E93 E60 E61 E70 E71 E72 CCD HD Backup Handle Camera

- Torque adapter
- TPMS adapter
- Carpaly adapter

Evererything is working but the carplay adapter (waiting from an update from support) and I did not have time to setup the OBD2 bluettoth adapter with the unit. In reality my challenge is that I am new w android (Mac fan to the core)

Will be updating the post as time permits and certainly sharing pictures
