I'm trying to upgrade my standard to premium, so if there are better solutions out there, I would love to hear them...CheersSash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like switching inputs and controlling DVD player? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member 176 Member For: 21y 6m 2d Location: North Lake Macquarie NSW Posted 20/12/03 02:57 AM Share Posted 20/12/03 02:57 AM YAY, I discovered the tutorial on fordmods and will be starting it 2moro, I hope.Is there anybody who can help me with the procedure to acces the video connector? (like which screws to undo on the dash) I dont really wanna undo any old screw Aaron, is the reason why you reccomended SCART because it keeps red signal, blue signal.... etc separate so it is easily plugged into the ICC, unlike a single RCA plug?

I can only seem to find detailed info on how to hook up a pc to the icc, but im more interested in knowing if anybody has an xbox mod that is working on the icc??? if so, can someone tell me in detail what I need to do to get this working? thanks!!!

Not having the system myself makes it quite hard to make plans on what the next step will be. The xbox will need to be NTSC (60hz refresh), I think a mod chip can give you the options of switching between the two (PAL and NTSC).A SCART cable used with the xbox will keep each of the specified signals separated (e.g. red, blue, green, h sync, etc) instead of combining them into 3 RCA plugs, which wont work.But I cant say much more, I need the system. I also have conflicting information and I need the system to set things straight. If I get it going ill put on a HOW TO.Mitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you saying that (aside from the audio connector) all I need is a scart cable (scart on both ends?) to connect the video part up of the icc from the xbox? also if it's not too much trouble do you have a photo of the cable I need, or any other components? if its not too much trouble.
