You have to buy a module. If you do a quick search for tvandnav2go you should find something.

There is a ACM retrofit from BMW that when combined with other products will give you DVD capability

Here are install & operating manuals.

Has some other nifty features too. I do not have it so cannot answer any questions. Maybe someone already has and can chime in.

I wonder if we can order the parts from germany and install it here.

lee.minwoo_ · 06-15-2007, 06:56 PM

oh~ but does the dealership lets us order those parts and install it for me?

2008_335i_coupe · 05-27-2008, 07:49 PM

i am curious too...
can we get this in the US and make it work?

StarrDlux · 05-29-2008, 07:03 AM

or you could ask some german or south american folks for a flash upgrade

convert your car to german and rawk.

let me guess you didn't even try to put vid files in (and do renaming tricks)??

me92 · 06-25-2008, 11:06 PM

look at the OP date..

i thought EAS is making one.. but no news?

glamprecht · 07-15-2008, 06:11 PM

Anyone tried this yet?

glamprecht · 08-26-2008, 04:36 PM

I ordered the ACM directly from the dealer.

glamprecht · 09-03-2008, 03:36 PM

No, this is a project for the weekend.

I am planning:

Front/Rear camera
CARPC input
and TV-OUT from my phone www.htc.com (touch pro)

magamaga · 09-04-2008, 10:49 AM

Yes it works well. It works like an OEM installation. I would have liked to know the RS232 commands for DVB-T and USB though so I can use that with the CARPC. Failing that I would tap into the K-CAN for that.

Anyway I'm quite happy with the install. The equipment works very well and it is very nice to wire with correct wiring looms.
