Default Any way to hook up a TV monitor and keep the stock head unit in a 1st gen LS400?

I just wanted to know is it possible to just get a TV monitor so I could hook up a VCR or Playstation 2 to it and still keep my stock head unit?

I have a 1st gen LS 400.

Yeah, of course it is possible. Just give it 12V and you can do whatever you want with it.

All you would need is the monitor ,source(PS2,DVD,vcr etc.) and a RF unit to feed the sound through the stock system
