E90 ICE Upgrade advice please

[BMW330d]

I have an E90 with Professional Navigation and Bluetooth fitted and have decided that I would like to upgrade the ICE and add some screens to the rear of the car for the little one.

Ideas so far are two of the Alpine TME-M780 screens in the headrests with an Alpine DVD and sound linked into the BMW system through the AUX input. Am I correct in saying that I cant display the video signal on the factory screen?

Sound wise I need to keep the factory headunit and i-drive for obvious reasons so I was thinking of either the JL Audio cleansweep along with the Alpine processor or the new Audiocontrol DQL-8. Does anybody have any experience with either of these?

Speaker wise I am really undecided all I do know is that I want the car to look stock and any modification must be reversible at sale time! I will run a three way set up at the front using the factory positions for the tweeter on the back of the mirror, the door for a 4" and under the seat for mid bass. Can anybody recommend a good three way system?

Advice is also needed for the subs in the form of what to buy, where to locate it and how to get the sound into the car. I don't have a ski hatch by the way.

Sorry for the length of the post but I thought it was better to give as much detail as I could for you to comment on.

you can using the relevant interface. i will check to see which one it is.

which alpine processor are you talking about? the current one being the pxa-h701 with the rue-c701 controller or are you talking about the all new digital one with hand held remote control?

with a bit of work you can get in the jl audio xr 653 csi comps or the focal poly glass 165v3e components.

i would have to see the car to work out the best enclosure for sub bass.
