Otherwise what is the easiest method to retain the SatNav and still play dvds.Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In short you can connect a DVD player to your ICC and have an AV switch installed to change between your SatNav and the DVD player. I'm 99.9% sure the satnav system will not play DVDs for you.

After all that gets done I will follow up with a custom tune. Do these cars have any problems with 12 pounds of boost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mod to make the satnav play a video dvd would cost way more than you are willing to spend. There are many options. eg alping hub bro, car dvd player that supports the icc. my favorite, carputer but that's quite a project Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I will spend money on power rather than worry about a dvd player - chances are I'll crash whilst watching the screen rather than the road anyway.
