BMW 7 SERİSİ E38 NAVİGASYON'A DVD MONTAJI
İHTİYACINIZ OLAN PARÇALAR
BMW
TV Tuner Modified for Video in Motion - I selected the Nav
with TV solution. Price: After talking with all of
the BMW TV tuner guys Nav with TV was the most aggressive on
price, and NO cutting of wires. He offered it to me for
$750 for the whole kit and told me that anyone else can get
the same price just by mentioning BMWNAV's website.
TV Tuner Wiring harness - I selected the Nav
with TV solution Price: Came as part of the
Kit
DVD Changer - I selected the BOSS DVD changer from Buy.com. Price
$236.99! It was by far the cheapest in price and I am
sure in quality, but it seems to be a pretty nice unit for the
price.
Alternative Solutions
- http://www.openbmw.org/nav/sys describes in details the part numbers for a self build
unit.
Video Module $472.50 uncoded. -
Downside: needs to be coded and will not work while
driving
Wiring harness Start with a P/N 61 12 8
377 436 and do some modifications ~ $60. I have made
two of these, and they are not that difficult for the basic
cable. Downside: Need to cut wires in your
Navigation harness to splice in, and need to do some
additional modifications if you want to add in Video inputs,
Audio inputs, rear back up camera inputs, video outputs, audio
outputs. Need considerable time and understanding of
electronics to do this one.
- TV on NAV Has a very nice
solution. No cutting of wires and Features
include steering wheel control for channels, and external
audio control.
Price $999
- NAVTV Most well known. Price $1295.
Must splice in wires on Navigation wiring
harness

My NavwithTV solution came with everything you
see here. TV tuner and a nicely done wiring harness

Note above on the bottom left of image.
You have a blue connector and a blue connector
receptacle. The idea is that instead of cutting wires
like some solutions all you have to do is plug in the
Navigation computer connector in this receptacle and then plug
in the blue connector into the Navigation computer. It
may sound confusing but it is a VERY SMART way to do it.
To install all you have to do is remove the Navigation blue
plug plug it into the receptacle and plug in this plug into
the Navigation computer. Then just plug in the blue and
purple connectors on the TV tuner. That is it!
Then turn on your car. They have some nice instructions
that I will post soon.

First step is to remove the Cover for the rear
compartment.

First step is to remove the two plastic screws
on the right and the Navigation computer

Their is a special BMW tool that must be used to
remove the Navigation computer. I made mine out of a
coat hanger cut in four pieces

The idea with the tool or the coat hanger is to
push in just far enough to unlock the spring loaded catch

Close up of what you are doing with the coat
hanger. You only need to push in far enough to unlock
the catch.

Remove the trim ring around the Navigation
computer

Then gently remove the whole piece.

On the 7 series, or at least on mine, the TV
tuner attaches to these two mounts and then I used a nut and
bolt for the top hole (no picture, but it is obvious)

After plugging in the Blue connector on the
Navigation computer to the blue receptacle on the navwithtv
harness and the blue connector into the navigation computer,
all that you need to do is hook in these two connectors to
your TV tuner and plug in your video and audio inputs.
<Note> The BMW TV tuner only does mono audio. If
you want full stereo, you are going to need to get a soundgate
solution. (I don't know anything about these, try http://www.e38.org/ )

My Boss DVD changer was a piece of cake to
install. Run video, audio power and then an IR eye for
the remote. <Note> I am going to change the
IR to an RF remote soon, so my IR mount was pretty basic

I opted for the stealth install. Way back
in the back of the trunk. You can not see it from a
casual observance. You have to stick you head in t find
it.

First time I started the car, the TV option came
up perfectly

I selected TV and selected the AV option from
the menu
Once AV was selected, my 16:9 display was ready for
primetime. The installation was very quick, but I took
my time to run the power wires to the rear fuse box for a
stealth install.
FYI, I had to read the manual to find the fuse box on the
750iL. As it turns out the top battery swings away after
removing one nut.
