This product is officially called DVN-E39. This strongly suggests that it was not originally intended for the E53. Instead, it just so happens to fit in an E53. As I noted before it does not fit vertically and it has the same viewing angle problem that other aftermarket units have in the X5. The picture starts to fade away for my seating position. I had to adjust my seat a little to fix this problem. I had the same problem with my Pioneer Avic.

My install is not complete as I have DSP. I have decided to finally get rid of the DSP amp and go aftermarket. I purchased an Alpine PDX5 and created a custom bracket for it above the OEM amp. I am currently using it to push my JLAudio subwoofer (I did a writeup on this also a while back). I will be adding Focals soon to replace the factory speakers. I plan on doing a writeup on that install.

I bought the Dynavin mainly because I wanted navigation. The software that comes with the unit is a joke to me. So I changed it. That's right, you can change the navigation program. I decided to go with IGo Primo. It has a huge following on the internet and some people even makes skins for it. Also, IGo Primo supports 800x400 resolution and looks really good on the Dynavin.
