All in all, I have an Alphard which is loaded with built-in entertainment setup and those, unfortunately, looked and works much nicer that the BMW ones.....

Ouch, can't believe I am saying Toyota has something better than the BMWs.....

PS. I do have an 550i F10 on order so I am not purposely trashing it.....
Hi mlai,
Yes, the OEM cost for entertainment is prohibitive - hence, that's why am asking around for alternatives. There is a box that can be placed apparently in the glove - allows connectivity for GPS, front/rear cameras, DVD playback = all through the I-drive - so if this is real - it would be great...but no one has responded to confirm/deny on this "urban legend" as yet...
