Tv into car that had no TV

Recommended Posts

Hey guys. Just wondering if it is possible to use the factory E39 TV (non widescreen) in a car that did not come with the unit from factory.

Not fussed on having TV stations. But is it possible to install the unit without changing the loom over?

Changing the loom is a mission and prob not worth it.

I have the Business dual tuner system with tape deck and DSP.

Yes, you can do this

You need a retro-fit loom which connects into the existing loom.

You'll need following parts:

Retrofit instructions (PDF file, read before you start buying parts)

Retrofit loom (with DSP)

Screen

Navigation computer OR TV tuner OR both (the TV tuner or the nav drive the screen, so you need one or the other)

GPS antenna (if GPS being fitted)

Radio module

Brackets, screws, etc

New CD changer trim cover

New antenna amplifier if fitting a >2001/09 radio into a <2001/09 car

Optional:

Telephone/Bluetooth

DSP amplifier, speakers, CD changer remain unchanged.
