Does anyone know whats the best way to integrate a video input module to iDrive withought stretching it over the entire screen? Reason I ask is because in my G35 coupe I put the new video 60GB iPod to play concerts and Music videos in my car on my HU display it works great I love it. but now I want to do that in my 545i and my friend wants one in his new E60 M5 so now I've seen a picture of one a long time ago that put dvd videos on the iDrive screen but it look funny because it was stretched to wide. But today i've seen it on E90 post where a 3 series was able to do it but doesn't seem to want to tell people which module he used so maybe you guys could help thanks

Here is a link to the thread on E90post.com that shows what i'm talking about notice how it doesn't take the whole iDrive screen up.. http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=9049

Hi Don
We have the mod for this car. If your car has nav then it has an 8.8" screen. Our 8.8" unit will let you display 8.8" on 8.8" (streched) or display them 6.5" on an 8.8" screen (NOT streched). You will be able to select this in the menu. You will have 4 video inputs, 3 audio inputs and 1 audio outputs. Feel free to call us at 718-763-7367.
Thanks Dominic of www.TVandNav2Go.com
