Found a radio from a 95, 3 series bmw, will it fit into the E30?

imo there are way better headunits out there for little over $150

but if it is free i am sure it may be a little better then stock so go for it.

but i am pretty sure it will fit someone else chime in because i dont want to give false info.

Yes it will fit, hopefully its a C43/CD43 unit, much better than the c33
(I have the C43 cassette unit)

there is a metra harness for the unit, you can splice the various sep wires into the metra harness, don't throw the wrapper away as it has the wiring color codes.

I wouldn't even bother if it's older than a C43/CD43 as those had terrible sound. I've had both the older and newer before in my E36 and can tell a difference.
