Hi decided to upgrade from my is200 that i have had for the last 3 years. Sad to see it go as its been a great car and most reliable ive ever owned. Just hope that the Beemer is just as good.

Anyway, i pick the car up in a couple of weeks its a 2006 530d m sport and wondered if there was anyway that i can make the satnav (professional)to double up as tv. I couldnt have the factory option as i am buying this as an ex demonstrator.

If anyone in UK has had this done can you point me in right direction?

Cheers.

Welcome aski! :thumbsup:

congrats to You new car!

If I remember correctly for prof navi it's possible to connect BMW tv-tuner easily. Best way is to ask from Your sales rep to get awailability and price. If they don't know ( it's possible) make search in here or PM for example to Iceman. He is expert in this case.

I know its possible, you can see the bits on www.realoem.com

I think parts are about ?700 (although you need to check) and then fitting and possible recoding after that....

This is ?710 as an option for dealer fit. Surely there must be a cheaper way to do it than this. Does it specifically need to be that part or will a tuner from another model not do the trick ?

Does any one have a 2nd hand one that they don't need anymore :thumbsup:

Welcome aski to the Forum!

You now own a hell of an lot better car than your old IS200!

But the E60 is hardly as reliable as a Toyota (Lexus).
