Just to note, srhutch's instructions will be about 95% complete. The last bit is missing :P

I would be very surprised if it did work, the new 5 and 7 have idrive as standard so the system is designed to work without GPS, but the E46, E39, E85/6 was only ever supplied with monitor and GPS/Nav.
 
Hi guys!

I've read this topic a few times and now I'm certain that I'll do the SatNav retrofit :). I bought the screen/monitor and I'm chasing the other parts. This topic gives a lot of information. I know that the day will come when I'll be asking many questions about this project, so I'm glad you're here :thumbsup: . And if someone happens to see a needful part for me, please PM :) . Thank you very much.

srhutch,

Hi Dice

Sure are both PVR and I have them.

The hardest part for you to find at a sensible price will be the headunit, good luck with your search though.

Instructions sent, it took me a while to get the parts but got some bargins so it pays to be patient.

Hi all!

Still searching parts. I tried realoem, but I think it's not working (The specified part 65906971353 was not found).

So I ask from you does this one fit for my Z4:

Expensive, I know... but tell him :) !


Thanks

You were and you are right. CID controller (headunit) is the hardest part to find. All the other parts I have :).
