Unhappy Can i turn my navi into a dvd player but still use nav

I searched around for almost two hours and couldnt find anything like this...

I want to be able to watch DVDs on my stock navigation system, but I still want to be able to use the navigation if i want to!

Can I change the dvd/navi unit? Or can I make the stock player work???

yes you can,nav-tv has an interface that will work quite well.

also, this will help you in the future with questions such as this

What you need is an video switch and dvd player. To switch the screen between the nav and dvd player. These two will work http://www.therpmstore.com/product_i...roducts_id=286 and http://www.therpmstore.com/product_i...roducts_id=285 . Also you will need some kind of aux input for audio. Here is diy for the install https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.p...&highlight=nav
