Factory TV install into E39 with no TV

Is this possible without having to change the loom?

I was given a factory BMW TV (non widescreen) with the entire loom.

But would I need to change the loom? I really can not be bothered going that far for a TV unit.

My car is a 97 E39 540i with the Business System with tape deck. Also has DSP.

Did a search but all I can find is Upgrading from the square screen to the widescreen.

Cheers
Dan

Solved this myself. Have a full guide in pdf format of how to retrofit the tv into a car that did not come with one.

Wont be doing it though. As you require a $300US adapter loom which is a total rip off imo.
