that is absolutely correct, but if you play wide screen, you barely sees it... its doesnt bother me at all plus i save big buck doing it this way.......you can watch while driving without having to park the car with the parking brake...

this should definately be a sticky.

Non ML Nav to Play any Video source through Rear Camera Video Input.

Have you considered Ipod Video?

Wait.. so if you use an AfterMarket DVD player.. where do you put it? Do you pull the CD player out and put that in its place? If so, does that mess up listening to music?

you can put it anywhere you like, mine i put it in the passenger's glove box next to the dvd rom.... its look factory too....but anyway, ibeen enjoying my ride with the dvd....no you are not going to mess with the factory radio, all you doing is add an after market dvd player which is goin through the rear camera video input, this input is actually a black, red and white wire....these 3 wires are for video source, and the reverse wire is on the h1, silver with silver dot....you gonna need some 2 switches... one switch is to activate the video input, and the other is to activate the camera so itll be on when you want it to.. pretty easi..

I am curious to know what type of External DVD player has an FM Modulator? I'd be interested in trying this out.
