I am looking at buying a new 5 series (probably a 525d SE). Can any of the
following option be fitted aftermarket (and cheaper!) ?
1. Sav Nav
2. Parking Distance Control (PDC)
3. Bluetooth

Any good sites in the UK that I can look at?

Many thanks
Bill

Not seen any retrofit stuff on the new 5 although they can retrofit
satnav/tv on E46 3 series for about ?2500 all in (cheaper for just satnav).
If it were me I'd go for factory PDC and Bluetooth and then a TomTomGo for
satnav. Of course you can always 3rd part all of these things but whether
you achieve an acceptable fit/finish is another question.

Itis not likely that systems for those that are compatible with the
car's systems are available and/or can be integrated like the BMW
systems.
