Hi Dave
The FM mod we use is made for us and is of excellent sound quality. We use it on all our high end installs.
The FM mod is $75. You don't need a separate TV Tuner we have, if you want a DVD player with built in TV Tuner.
Thanks Dominic of www.TVandNav2Go.com

Dominic:

I have a 2004 E60 USA production date 10/03. No navigation.

Is the TV Tuner/DVD built into the box or how does it work? Do you have pics of the TV Tuner/DVD thing? Are you going to make a box with all the above tv/tuner/dvd/bluetooth & navigation?

Hi Dave
Hope all is well.
The dvd is din size with buit in TV-Tuner. We made a unit at one time that had built in TV-Tuner but the demand for TV tuner was not there. The more features we add the higher the cost. If we add to many features many people won't want to pay the extra cost. We are working on another unit which will be 100% plug and play including the power. This was an idea that Hobi has been doing all along. I hope it will be a good seller, but it will add cost to the unit.
Thanks Dominic of www.TVandNav2go.com

Hi Dominic,

Let me know when the 100% Plug & Play one is out I will purchase that one for sure. Any ETA when it will be available?

I would pay for the one with TV Tuner/DVD built-in if you guys would make such an item.

Take care,
Chris

Hi Dominic,

I am interested in the BMW56 interface. What is the cost now? I know you were offering a group deal that may be expired as of now. Do you also sell din dvd units? If so could I get info on them. I'm in NC and will be purchasing from you. Thanks!!!

Hi Everyone
Hope all is well.
We now have a new Nav to DVD conversion unit for all the New BMW 3/5 and 6 series with I drive control.
The new unit has 3 video inputs, 2 audio inputs, 1 audio output. The unit is Pal and NTSC. Yes it will work if you have Nav or No Nav. Yes you will have video in motion. It now has a selection for 6.5 on 6.5 and 8.8" on 8.8" so 1 unit does it all. The best feature yet is the optional I-Drive control unit. This will now fully intergrate the mod so the you can now make your video source selection through your I-Drive you don't need a remote control. The converter only is $550 and the OPTIONAL I-DRIVE controll unit is $100. Feel free to call us at 718-763-7367 or email us at sales@TVandNav2Go.com
