TV in motion

astra · 02-28-2007, 10:27 PM

Is anyone interested in a group buy of the TV In Motion Interface?

It works for all non I-Drive models

LEA69 · 02-28-2007, 11:15 PM

hey Astra, had a look at website.. but this not compatibel with E90 models yeah?

astra · 02-28-2007, 11:25 PM

not exactly sure

all i got from it is, not compatible with I-Drive - i can PM the seller and ask if it is e90 compatible...

LEA69 · 02-28-2007, 11:28 PM

Im bored with my car.... id like to add some gadgets to it.... or maybe its time for an upgrade already..... thought of putting a 7" screen somewhere in the front dash... but where the heck will one fit??

i once got a quote for fitting a navigation into my accord euro... included moulding a new dash so that it looked flush, too much $$$ for me

LEA69 · 02-28-2007, 11:51 PM

yeah i know. at the moment i have a 3" screen popping out of my front middle air vent which I use as my reverse camera and hooked up to playstation but im wanting a bigger screen ultimately... just stumped as to where I could fit one.

Any suggestions anyone?

Im not keen on changing my OEM head unit for an after market unti with pop out screen... nah....

A guy on the forum put 2 tvs in his headrests but i want ME to enjoy it, not passengers in the back seat!!!

there are some screens that fit in the sun visors
that's all i can think of but i have no experience with them

i personally have an alpine aftermarket dvd thingy 7" screen that pops out. looks ok in the MINI but if i had an e90 i wouldn't do it

astra · 03-01-2007, 02:13 AM

7 inch would look huge in a mini wouldn't it?

J/k Chilli, i love mini's

astra · 03-01-2007, 05:48 AM

Chris.G · 03-01-2007, 05:49 AM

sure astra, what ya said was pretty slack

astra · 03-01-2007, 06:09 AM

Put it on the bonnet like a hood ornament. Then it can double as a head-up display!!

Plenty of room there!

funky_chilli · 03-01-2007, 07:08 AM

got one somewhere....let me go dig it up

funky_chilli · 03-01-2007, 07:17 AM

ok so that doesn't show it very clearly and it's got a pic of some freaky looking lady on an asian video clip

oh wait, now i look at it closely, that's my old headunit - but it's still a 7" screen

can't find pics of my new one maybe i'll take another one later....

and in case ur wondering, i got a new one coz my car got broken into and they stole it

the old one was pioneer - new(er) one is alpine - and i like it much better even though the functions are basically identical

astra · 03-01-2007, 07:24 AM

hey that doesn't look half bad!

funky_chilli · 03-01-2007, 07:25 AM

of course not

funky_chilli · 03-01-2007, 07:26 AM

but then that's why i take the pics in the dark
not only do the lights look cooler
but it hides the GAP and the other imperfections that after-market stuff does to ur car

eml · 03-01-2007, 12:42 PM

i ordered one from eas a few months ago. the hardest part of the installation was taking out the trunk liners.

astra · 03-01-2007, 04:27 PM

was it the kind of thing that is never the same again after you had taken it out?

astra · 03-01-2007, 04:56 PM

found out some info for you LEA69... the interface for the e90 will be available in 35 to 40 days

LEA69 · 03-02-2007, 01:38 AM

thanks for the update Astra.... ill keep a look out for it
