But not in Canada ... Sirius is still not an available option as BMW says they can't guarantee the quality ... I think its just the Canadian government not yet allowing it ...

I've only seen it as OEM ...

I believe the DVD system is listed under the individual options for the 5:

I don't think this is available yet, anywhere. I believe BMW will release it eventually.

If it would be available as of today, ICEMAN would definitely have it by now and he does not :P

Check out page 8 of this .pdf document. I believe this is the option that the BMW's website link posted by firewired talks about.

That's funny, I could have sworn that I saw a rear DVD player in ICEMAN's car? Let me check...

Yeah, ICEMAN has these 2 photos in his gallery:
DVD Player Photo From Front
DVD Player Photo From Side

I got those 2 photos from page 4 of ICEMAN's gallery. It's a shame to learn that this is not an OEM option that's available in the US. I don't generally like the idea of a DVD player in a car; but, I thought this setup in the handrest looked so handsome I was planning to include it in my purchase.

kfarouki,

This is ICEMAN's personal setup and has nothing to do with a BMW OEM option. I am sure ICEMAN will chime in here, but wanted to let you know, the OEM option shown early on in pics (may be a part of the E60.net photo galler/information) looks like an attachment to the back of both seats, and it will take up some leg room. Hopefully, someone will post a pic soon.

I also remember seeing one that was a pull down from the roof of the car. It contained both the DVD and the screen in that setup. I believe this option was the more "official" one.

This is what they have on the BMW website
