Hello?
I did an announcement in the parts forum some weeks ago with a collected bying. For exactly this item. No one was interested.
But I was unlucky; I?ve had 3 interface, none of them worked in my car, other 8 ones for the other forum members worked well.
Hope to get some new ones. Prizing incl. shipping to germany was about 230 Euro (incl. douane)

But if there is no competition, you can ask what you want.....
They almost forced me to design my own interface unit, but when I read your message I decide to save the time and to go for the 200 USD unit
I had read your message, but I thought that I was to late for the buy.
I didn't had to pay import-tax because this guy from euronavi-systems suggested to put the "value of the goods" on the box of 20 USD, so no taxes are applied then
There is one tricky thing of installing this interface, and that is that you could reverse th LVDS connector on the unit, and I think that that may have go wrong at your side...
Thats the only disadvantage of this unit, for the rest its 100% OK.
The shipping costs were 36 euro's (Fed-Ex where I paid the costs seperatly to fedex) and the unit was 199 USD

The interface unit remote control is exactly the one the I bought from NavwithTV. Same hold true for the i-Drive screen message. $199 for this unit is a really good deal. I wish I know this one before.
Anyhow, it looks good!

Is it correct that you had an advertisement in your signature of that you installed that NavwithTV in cars?
And now its gone! Why?

Hi Justin,
I?didn?t mean you with my posting above. Yeah, the ordering time had ended to this time.
Could you give me a hint what direction the lvds wire is right inserted? The manual from the web-pdf was wrong; I guess, at the interface the orange wire is top (below the letters on the interface) and when you look at the monitors front where should be the orange wire?

Is this enough information?
