As for playing movies, yes, but you'd need either the BMW OEM TV/video module and the wiring harness adapter or one of the 3rd party AV 'injectors' ... preferable to go with the OEM TV module which has an AV-in option and is selectable using the monitor controls.
so if I buy a used mkiv unit i just have to plug it in? I won't need any extra mounting hardware or wires? if so that's great news. right now i'm looking at a 2002 x5, and i can't stand the cd based nav system.

if i go with the OEM TV module is this also easy to install or would i need to pay someone? once it's installed i can just put dvd movies in and watch them?
