Upgrading from CD GPD to DVD GPS for a 2000 M5

Posted 6th July 2009 at 21:54 by brownman76

My 2000 M5 has a CD based GPS that is semi-functional but pretty slow.

Can I upgrade to a DVD based GPS and still have all the BMW info show on my screen (on board computer, etc)?

If so, what do I need to buy, what will it cost and where can I find it?

Also, any recommendations as to who might do it (dealers vs. speciatly sound store)? Don't suggest I do it- if it takes more than duck tape and a hammer I am hopeless.

Thanks for any advice...

Removing the rear seat from a 2000 M5

Anyone no how to do this? One user recommended to "give it a tug and it will come out", but mine seems to be pretty well attached and I'm afraid if I continue to tug I'll bend or break it.
