What do you have to do with the Nav option to allow it to play DVD movies, if the screen resolution is even sharp enough for movie use?

 

people are working on this in the audio thread

 

Ditto on that. Discussing mods like this is one of the things that makes a car forum worthwhile. So, take it or leave it, but know that it is a do-able thing. And that's cool.

BTW, KC_RX_8, nice pix of your 8. I'm not sure why really, but those are some of the nicest black 8 pix I've seen...good work. That front-on pic in your avatar gives an awsome appearance, with those coolers showing and all. No wonder they pull over when we come up close :D

 

Someone has already made it work. Check out the gallery at avelectronic:

I recently added a TV Tuner & 10 DVD changer to my RX-8.

It's great for morning news & sports. The DVD player comes in handy in long road trips.

Go to AVElectronic they sold me the equipment:

Here's where the NavTV unit was installed:

Good luck and enjoy!

 

i give you props for the custom buttons, ps2 location, and glove compartment ideas. but for those that have the navi i dont think that screen will work. has anyone tried fitting a screen behind the passenger seat i know it doent have those headrests so you'll probably have to cut it open or something... :-O

and to fernando that looks pretty good, but i derno some people dont wanna rip out that backseat...

 

how clear is that setup Fernando?

 

Great install. By the way how did you get the dummy switches out of the dash inorder to install your custom switches?
