For those for you who doesn;t have Navigation for your E60, have anyone try to swap the OEM NAV 8.8 monitor to your non-navmonitor to see if it work? Does it give you a bigger picture with the wider monitor?
Anyone?
I am think about swaping with an OEM NAV 8.8 Monitor to my Non-Nav E60 to see if I can get a bigger picture for my future DVD player and TVandNavtogo mod...
What do you guys think?
Thanks.
Alan

If you don't have nav, you can switch to 8.8" monitor, but you'll see one gray line between 6.5" pic and blank area on the right. It looks like you hook up to an aftermarket monitor. It looks awful. Don't do it unless have have nav.

Hi
I have now tryed to fit at 8.8" Monitor in my E60 with Nav Bus. and I also get a blank field at my right screen side like E60 without Nav , at all.
Conclusion : you have to change the CCC to at Prof. to get the full yuse of a 8.8" screen.
