E53 TV install

Hi guys,

I just installed a tv module to my 03 X5. Bought both a tv retrofit harness from and a tv module 6911221 from ebay.

Connected one end of the harness to the module and the other end to the navigation unit. Pretty straight forward.

However, there's an additional 2 pin wire from the harness that I can't find connection to. Can you guys take a look and let me know where it goes?

Sorry for the lack of install photos. When you get into the install frenzy you forget everything except making the install work. I did manage to take a screen shot of the items I purchased on ebay.

My next step is to purchase an atsc tuner from aliexpress and install it into the oem tv module. Add on 2 antennas and hope for the best!

I already purchased a ccd camera. (please see attached photo for the one I got) Does anyone know how to connect it onto the tv module?

Also like to know if it's possible to have tv on the go?

2 other notes:

1. Does anyone know what the spare connector is on my first photo? it's unplugged and tucked away on the right side of the PDC module. No idea what it does.

2. I installed the tv module to the empty space next to the radio tuner on the right. When you pull out the entire assembly that contains the radio tuner, you'll see that the black tray in actually empty and is a pretty close fit for a tv module.

Much obliged!

Theo
