Hey, I'm researching the same as i'm planning to upgrade to Nav on our new 08 X5. So far haven't found much info... Do you have a complete parts list for the Nav retrofit? If you do it would be great if you can hook me up. All i know is that once you install all the parts you need you will have to take the vehicle to the dealer for a complete recode.
Now, did the 16:9 screen worked just plug and play? btw, this is the thread i've started about the same thing. The retrofit package for nav mentioned in the thread is comming up as a bad part according to the parts people at the dealer... like i said not much info otherwise... so lets combine resources on this!

It is not plug & play. The parts will cost you approx $4000 and you will have to gut most of the interior to run new wiring harnesses - in the dash, under the centre console and under the seats/carpeting to the trunk. Take a look at the E53 nav retrofit pages to give you an idea.

The E70 Navigation stuff is all in the dash isn't it? Certainly my DVD drive for the disc, all the video modules etc are in the dash.
What needs running to the trunk? Presumably you need to remove headliner for the shark fin gps but apart from that I would expect it to be easier than the E53. (By the way I am speculating - I know absolytely nothing about this! ) |

I'm still pretty surprised no one has done this retrofit on the e70...

replacing a 4:3 with a 16:9 on e70?
Hi all,
I have a 2009 3.0 e70 without nav but w/satellite. I'd like to gradually retrofit in nav and am starting with the monitor. I've searched and searched and cannot find a retrofit article on monitors for the e70's. Surely it cant be as simple as swapping out the 4:3 for the 16:9, can it? Is it plug and play? And once the 16:9 is in, does the display automatically recognize the widescreen, or continue to display a centered or offset 4:3 image? THanks in advance to anyone who knows. |

Did you folks made any progress with your NAV stuff? I just got an 07 x5.0si without the NAV option and I am desperately looking for a solution.

The BMW Nav system is not as good as a $100 Garmin. If I had it to do over again, I would not get the Nav in my X5,
