This allows you to add a "TV" option and wire in a composite input to that selection. No emulator needed.
Get a shielded composite cable, snip it and add part #61136901848 connectors to shield, ground and vid +
Photo #1 shows shielded vs. not. All yellow is shielded
Photo #2 Wired connectors
Remove quadlock on back of CIC and input the connectors in one of the selections

Quadlock photo
Coding:
Add VO $601 in CAS and NFRM modules. code CIC,
than chceck or modify this in CIC module:
TVM_VARIANTEN
vm_l4_most_fkat
TV = wert_21 (or 22, or 23)
depends on which Fbas socked did you use can be this:
FBAS1 = +18 28
GND 27 (wert_21)
FBAS2 = +19 26
GND 25 (wert_22)
FBAS3 = +21 24
GND 23 (wert_23)
FBAS socket inputs found in pdf
I used a $30 mini android pc and a hdmi-composite converter
Pros: No more unplugging USB, charging device etc. Turn on car and MHD available via Idrive. Mini PC apps also available for use
Cons: TV video size limited. Split screen photo shows size of display even when split screen off.
Can be tedious process getting all set up.
Final thoughts: Knew it could be done and did it. Still not ideal position for gauges IMO and would like to fabricate a OLED monitor on my left as next project.
