SatNav Upgrade - Will a 7" screen fit a standard pre-facelift?
Posted: Fri Mar 09, 2018 10:56 am
Hi,
I am currently searching for an pre-facelift X5 3.0d as a daily driver, and the forum has been hugely useful. However, i haven't been able to answer this question using the search system:
Can a 7" screen be fitted to a car that doesn't already have the sat nav option, just the standard two-part display/CD player?
What i have in mind is something like this: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/XTRONS-PG755 ... SwgxxZk73C
(Hope its ok to post the link!)
I've got a bit lost with what's actuallly behind the installation. Not having a car yet, i can't take one apart to find out!
If so, presumably there are still benefits to having the OEM satnav so you can use the GPS receiver?
Any advice hugely appreciated!
