Picking up my new gleeming '04 X5 next week, can't wait. Need to upgrade the TV thingy. Guess I'll need a free view box. Any advice will be gratefully received.

Hi and welcome to the forum by a fellow Lancastrian.
Digital TV modules were fitted from late 2004 I think, but someone will give you a more accurate date.
I've still got a set of HIDS (55w, 6000 k ) and LED front marker light kits that I took of mine when I PX'd her. If you fancy a cheap mod. That's if you haven't got the factory Xenons that is £30 fitted, if your local to me

Hello &
As above, hybrid receivers began in October 2004 and are not very good in motion though fine when stationery.
You'll need to get one from Fleabuy as the OEM module is

price wise. Make sure it is a proper one though as scammers are known to put analogue only units on sale...... >:(
Good luck with the new toy.....
