Adding Most loop for base audio / hifi

As mentioned earlier, I ran a 5 meter Most fibre cable from Trunk to Idrive location on left side of car and then via firewall.

Behind the idrive on my M3 ( nbt evo 4.1 ) was a Most cable from NTB to cluster connector. I brought a Y patch cable with 2 female and one male connector which had universal outer shells . Not quite identical to BMW which meant the Most cable grommet needed to be modified.

Used Tesa tape to do so and also stop any rattles once installed . The BMW grommet ended up being loose when inserted into the right hand bracket location. Just used tesa tape the make the grommet contact point wider.

Then simply unplugged Most cluster connection and and connect Y patch cable

NTB to Y cable via female connector
Cluster to Y cable via male connector
Mobridge Amp extension to Y cable female connector.

I then reassembled Dash and put a Most loop back on Mobridge end extension cable to ensure Most y cable and extension working correctly. Startup gong worked so Most ready to go for Amp.
