This is dvd player playing DVDs
I am using a dvd player, has nothing to do with TV signals. Although right now if i attach an antenna I will be able to get some local air channels but don't want to put antenna on my car, So I am just using the system to play and see dvds

Yes, positive, you just have to reduce the contrast on the Navi screen and it shows just like a regular lcd screen. The only problem I noticed is that when u are watching from the back seat it does not seem that bright and clear and that is because the Navi screen is tilted. If u should raise up a bit then it is as good as a regular lcd. But from the front seat its as good as LCD. I will take pics and post later today.

Guys dvd is possible on 98-00 GS, I put this setup together on my old GS back in '04, parts alone were close to 1K back then, Nav converter, dvd player,tv tuner, rearview cam and various wires, connectors and such, don't remember everything we did but you do cut four wires at the nav computer, not a big deal, dvd player was custom mounted under the nav screen in place of the ash tray, very clean install, btw I still have most of these parts here somewhere, if anyone is interested in them send me a pm, now a few pics I dug up.
