My Ride: 2008 535i LCI with sports/premium package, Sports trans with paddle shifters, CF emblems, JB4 Software, Dinan Exhaust, Navigation, M5Tech body kit, Carbon wrap interrior trim and CIC Controller.
Finally made the purchase of the idrive multimedia adaptor that will allow to play video on the idrive screen. I been considering one for a while and then noticed the website that I found was also selling on eBay with a best off. GBP 150.00 is their regular price and best offer was GBP 125.00, so not too bad.

What I don't get is this...
"Watch any video source on your original factory fitted screen"
So what kind of video source are they talking about? Can I play video from the iPod? Where are the RCA inputs?

Video source would come from a iPod, USB stick, or if you want you can even plug in a DVD player... there is a setup also for backup camera if you don't have one and want to add.
