16:9
 

Hi all
Do any of the standard 75/MG TV tuners support 16:9 mine has pt. No. YIC 1000140??

Tony

Very few I'm afraid Tony.
Generally says on it, give it a try before buying as the number does not correspond with mine,
but that means little as some late 2004, 2005 models did indeed slip through with them.
To purchase second hand they go for around the £200+ mark at the moment.
Your Model is the newer one from Rover (don't have a BMW code do you on it)
The price of your Tuner on its own from XPart new, believe it or not is £825.81 Inc Vat.

I've just bought a 16:9 screen, my fault I will find out when it arrives. I should have checked first I've not had tuner out of the car. The cars 2004 so keeping fingers crossed, I could do with a little luck.
I'll take it out and see if there are any more numbers on it.

Tony, sorry I can't help with your question, but I notice you hail from Stamford. I worked there for many years at Sycamores, the Vauxhall dealership. Is it still standing? I hope not. :D
What happened to the MGR dealership? Marshalls wasn't it?

The only other numbers are:
037254090
003396

HW:00
SW:01
AI:01
Do these say anything to you?

No BMW numbers

Hi Collit
Yes its still there, but I'm more likely to found across the road on a friday night.
MGR dissapeard a few years ago it all in Peterborogh now, they have all the dealerships there or so it would seem.

My original tuner had the same detail numbers, although the part no. was YIC 000140 and that was 4:3 for everything. I then bought a BMW 16:9 tuner, but which subsequently turned out also to be a 4:3 one, although it did show both the computer and navigation displays in 16:9 format.

Once i have installed all the upgraded equipment into my car i am going to do a complete how to with part numbers etc, i have been researching it for over a week and have found out lots of information from various sources and will try to pull it all together to make life easier for everyone as trying to find the information is very time consumming

Have you changed your radio Unit to? BM24 or BM54.

Hi Peter
That would be great, I'm sure there are a lot of members wanting to upgrade but are not sure what parts they need.
