Thanks for the reply! Yeah, I figured that was the answer but I still can't help but think that there must be some way with some type of hardware hack to re-route some internal wires. But you know that'd be a fantastic mod/hack to figure out. I know I'll probably end up just getting an external drive like the one you referred to and keep it in my glove box which is pretty convenient. /start rant I'm very anti-iPod and will never own one so that route isn't an option. And no, I dont hate iPods b/c everyone loves them. The interface is garbage, iTunes is arguably the worst mass-ado

This is my first post so my apologies for any newbie-ness. Anyway, I'm considering getting the AVIC-D3 for my BMW 330Ci because I love how it looks very OEM and I can change the color of the button lights to match my interior. Plus, the price is very aggressive and jsut about how much I would want to spend. With that said, I don't particularly like the idea of having to swap the navigation disk out if I want to place an Audio CD or a Movie DVD into the slot at the top of the unit. Has anyone entertained the idea of installing an external DVD unit and placing the navigation disk in there p
