Please check out this thread over on E46fanatics. This might help you source all of the misc parts for much cheaper than tischer.

There's a guy on Kijiji here in Toronto selling the monitor + mp3 radio/controller for $450 CDN. If you need I can pick it up / ship it over to you. Doesn't come with the DVD player though.

...or you can contact the seller, maybe he's willing to ship it to you directly.

Here's the link: http://toronto.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehi...AdIdZ229495543

Thanks for that listing in Toronto, emailed him and waiting to hear back. If any one has any of the above stuff I haven't bought any of it yet, so please let me know what you have. thanks

Just curious, where are you planning on putting the GPS antenna? Up at the top of the windshield or under the dash?

In the retrofit instructions it has you mount in inside of the instrument cluster hole. If you buy an aftermarket one off ebay you can mount it onto something metal because they have a built in magnet. PVR has his mounted in the stereo compartment to something metal and he says his reception is great. Hope this helps...
