(?) TV tuners, XBOX, etc.... (?)

[jamstar89]

I have the Mini Sat Nav - which i thought was ridiculously expensive might i just say!

Is it possible to get a TV tuner or Xbox connected to the Sat Nav screen?

Regards

I 2 would be interested in something

Even though i work in a MINI dealer, im not to sure.

I think that if you can the TV tuner, you have to pay the £700 odd quid factory unit, but i dont know about the X-box.

We have some very nice stuff on the way TV, Xbox, PS2, reverse camera, ipod video will all become possible

oh oh oh!!! let me know when they arrive mikey!

I was wondering the other day if something like this was possible. I suppose if you don't ask you don't get!

I thought it was illegal to have TV in the front of a car?

Its only illegal if you watch is whilst moving. Front mounted DVD units have to have a connector in the handbrake system to de-activate them once the handbrake is released.

We fit them all the time here at work and have to wire in the cable to keep them legal.

me too please mikey! would love to make more of the screen

[jamstar89]

thanks for the replies guys, please let me know if any products become available to fit Xbox, Tv Tuners.

I needed the Sat Nav so opted to pay the hefty MINI asking price...but £700 for the MINI tv tuner is very overpriced in my opinion.

I had an aftermarket Pioneer system in a E46 M3, which played dvd's whilst driving. As a coupe, although I as the driver didnt watch it, it allowed others in the car to watch it whilst driving.

To be honest, it's almost impossible to watch, let alone enjoy any form of television entertainment, whilst driving....unless your willing to crash your much loved MINI's....
So im not bothered if it works while driving or not...
