Lexus Satnav/dvd Question

[Ninosins]

Hi guys,

I have a Lexus IS200 Executive from 2000. I have navigation in my car. But I also want to use my navigation screen to watch movies.

Now I want to buy a DIN DVDplayer and replace it with my standard Navigation CD player in the trunk of the car.

My Dealer says this can't be done but I think he is wrong :P So could you guys please please help me?

How can I make it possible to watch DVD's in my IS200 on my navigationscreen.

BTW I'm from holland, I bought my Lexus here at the dealership.

Hope you can help me.

you can buy a converter that lets you watch dvd's on your nav screen, you will also need to find a way to get the dvd's audio into your standard head unit. if you replace your current lexus head unit, you will also loose the sat nav

all the japanese models have tv tuners hooked up to the nav and the universal lexus navigation harnesses have tv tuner 12 pin connector on them so there is definitely a way to play dvd movies on your scvreen. that function however will not be known by the dealer as it is illegal to watch dvd while driving in most countries.
