2005 GX470 Factory DVD Player
My wife's 2005 GX has the factory installed DVD RSES with flip down screen.
I want to add an LCD monitor up front to watch movies on as well. Could someone tell me what type of video signal output is available on the factory DVD player and if it is possible to add another monitor?
My concern is that a standard aftermarket monitor will not work if there is either a digital or proprietary video out.

you have a couple options, you can just use the nav screen up front (rig the wiring so it things the car is in park with the emergency brake on) - or you can get any after market screen and connect via an RCA plug for the video. You splice into the wiring in the center console (behind the air controls in the rear) and just feed that wire. I actually put screen in the headrest with the factory flip down and I get the signal as I described above. IF you do a search through the forum, you can find out the specific wiring for both projects....
