Hi Everyone,
I am wondering if anyone knows how to bypass the TV in Motion block...
I have a 2001 525I with Sat Nav TV and want the TV to work while I drive (for my daughter, of course)...
Also, any suggestions on how to hook a portable dvd player?
Cheers

Migs...This is a common question...
Bad news, in your model making the TV work while in motion is all but impossible. The only way to do it is through here http://www.tvonnav.com/bmwtvonnav.html
However the pricing starts at $900 USD...
There is no secret way to unlock it. The only model that could do that is the Generation I GPS/NAV from 1997(Mine )...
