MKIV and TMC?

Hey guys, I am new to this forum and have a question specifically pertaining to the MKIV navigation unit and MY 2002 business radio. I am basically interested in receiving traffic updates via my in dash 16:9 screen on my e39. The only problem is that my unit only has RDS but no known TMC receiver. They didn't release this to US BMWs until 2007. Now the solution that I have come up with is very obvious. Get a TMC receiver! As far as I know the BM54 radio module is the only confirmed radio module with TMC receiver for BMWs with an in dash monitor and NAV computer such as the MKIV. This however is very pricey. I was wondering if anyone has installed an aftermarket TMC receiver in their BMW and if so what brand/model. Also, have you gotten the live traffic updates. I feel the capability should be there seeing as the UK version have had it for a good while now.
thanks,
Kham
