06 Bmw 750 Li video options

Hi guys
Im new here, and new to BMW's so go easy on me. Please forgive me if i ask any dumb questions.

Thanks in advance.
Ok i have a E65 bmw 750 li rear dvd entertainement with the CCC system.

Is there anyway to get dvd or a video source to play on the front idrive screen,
I have been told there is no way to unlock dvd in motion on this unit,

Or is there anyway to view the rear dvd entertainment on the front nav screen?
what i really am looking for is a way to hook my iphone up to the screen and be able to view the iphone screen on the nav screen. But i would the red white and yellow RCA connectors and apparently this car does not have them.

Car has rear tv tuner, Can that be enable to show on the front screen?

This is strictly for the passenger to view while on long trips.

I know its illegal, but hey its hot.

That a law everywhere in the US but who cares. I bet the if the chief of police had a 750 with RES he would be the 1st one on here looking to add video on the move.
