Hey All,
Just a quick Q before I go ahead and purchase.
Decided against the ACM as it sounded like there were too many things that could go wrong, and programming required etc....

I spoke to tvandnav2go after reading a lot of posts here, but they didn't think my late 2003 UK spec 530i (no Nav) had an audio input, and that I would need an FM modulator.

When I said Ok, fine, well send one of those as well, they said they wouldn't, because it might not work in UK??

Any advice?

And what exactly does the modulator do - all i need to know is if the navtv module will work with my motor?
On another note, I haven't seen any recent posts from the Domwithnavtv guy - is he still around, and is anyone aware of any bad feedback on this product?


Many thanks.

Kash.

ACM does not require any more programming than the AUX - which you will need for the Nav2Go as well. ACM is a better investment than Nav2Go and since its OEM too you retain the warranty. Bruce.
