retro fitting TV to 2g mmi

Post by bob bobster » Tue Apr 01, 2014 2:03 pm

afternoon all

after finally purchasing my dream girl with lots of options it doesn't have TV and could i ask if anyone could recommend an installer in the north east / north Yorkshire area and/or if there are any problems in doing so ? or what to avoid perhaps

thanks

It might buy you a 50" telly, not so sure about the nice.

I wouldn't fit TV, barely used it when I had it.

well that's that then ... I was only thinking of the kids but as I have had to sell them anyway to pay for the new toy don't suppose I really need it now

did like the idea of the 50" HD tv but was slightly unsure how I would see to drive ?

cheers all

Oops thats what I said on your other post before I read this. Tv in car is just not warranted unless your stuck in traffic 99% of time in which case don't drive an RS6 C5/6/7 or 8 unless it flies like Doc Brown's DeLorean..

When I'm stuck for an extended period of time (chain ferry yesterday). I only ever seem to remember I have a TV as Im pulling off again.
Cool gadget to have, nothing more.
