Rear seat entertainment option?

I have an opportunity to get an CPO X5M. It has all options I would want except it has rear seat entertainment. When I did a test drive my elbow would hit when it was up and it was uncomfortable when it was down. I'm very particular. This could be a deal breaker for me. What are your thoughts/experiences?

Leave it folded up and you don't even notice it.

Not sure as it wasn't on my X5M; but I'm sure it can be removed just like anything else and made to look like it was never there. Just an idea...I don't think it's worth letting it be a deal breaker as long as all the other options and price are to your liking.

I honestly don't even know mine is there unless it's folded down then I bump it but in the up position it never bothers me.

Same here. Folded down, it shouldn't interfere with arm placement.
