Question to all you e60 fans. I have a 07 e60 with an upgraded idrive with the non navi and smaller screen.

Question: if I buy the larger screen oem online would I be able to plug and play? Also would I get a larger imagine? Thanks all

I don't think so. The M-ASK will send its usual amount of video real estate info. Chances are you'll get the same sized image, but on a wider screen (kind of like watching standard sized movies on a wide screen without "stretch" mode). Might as well spend a few more and find yourself a used CCC unit (and trim).
