just check out the thread gazz  because you have the hazy screen means you have the tv tuner fitted in the back.  you can then input into this via rca plugs, there is a member who has plugged in freeview and dvd players in these, so long as your picture source can output in ntsc which lots do then your laughing

[Admin Edit]

Here's the LINK  It's now a 'sticky'

i have the same set up as u and i plugged a digital freeview tv into the tv tuner but to be honest its not very good
so would not go that way if i was u
u would be probaly better going for a dvd/mp3 player and plugging that in or if u want sat nav have a look on flee bay for "gps rca"
but it must work on ntsc format

pm me if u want any help  Wink

nope it wont work in english if u leave the set up as is now only in jap
it can be converted but at a cost try here www.soarer.tv

but as u got the tv tuner in the back u can add other things to your system u have now
eg u can add a dvd/mp3 player to the tv tuner so when u press the tv button on your paj radio it will pick up the dvd/mp3 player
i have dont this and it works

or u could add a gps sat nav with rca output so u have sat nav

do u have the reverse camera?

soarer tv will only add inputs to your tv tuner, it doesnt make it english just english sat nav. and you could do that off the bay for a fraction of the cost

That looks cool, but where have you put the heater controls ? i guess where the 6 cd changer is ? how much did that player set you back ? i do like the idea of it all incorporated in the one place with easy reach.
Do the plugs and leads from that player have to reach the tuner in the boot ?
Do all the other features of the mmcs work, the average fuel thingy, heater display etc etc, sorry for all the questions ... really want to get it something like  Wink

some of the mmcs were fitted with cd changers in the boot or in the dash, i think the one in the dash is a p101, anyway if you use extra equipment through the tv tuner then all your original functions are there bt with an added what ever ou put in, to access the aux equipment you just press the TV button on the radio.

but as Stibbs will tell you when you start to drive the screen will go blank as a safety feature. i am looking at the inputs on the screen to overcome this, but i hasten to add that it is illegal to drive with motion pictures in view of the driver, however if your fitting an extra satnav through it then this will be classed as a driving aid.

Cheers Lee, mine has the 6 changer in dash below the heater controls, could i just remove that and replace with what is in the above picture plug and play, so to speak or will i still need to install cables to get to the rear for the tuner ?
I know i sound so thick on this but for those who are non technically minded this should help out, like i said your other thread that is a sticky is excellent but it blinds us novices with science  Laughing

sorry, was hoping the other thread was easy to follow, it  did go a bit wayward though.

if you did remove your cd changer then you wouldnt have a cd changer.   Crying or Very sad

the cd changer would have its own type of power plug, so you would have to take a +batt and a +acc off this (+batt is the power your radio/unit receives when you switch off the car so it does not loose its stations etc. +acc is the power your radio/unit recieves when you have the car switched on).

yes you would have to run the rca cables to the tuner, however this should be pretty easy, as i have run several cables to the back of mine.

another option you have is to run the rca extension and leave the connections showing under the glove box, then you can plug in what you want when you want.  

heres something to blow your mind, if you had a laptop with the right extra equipment you could plug that in,  with a wireless mouse and keyboard you could run this through the screen in theory. and watch movies, have satnav, or play your music.

Im really not fussed about the changer to be honest, ive had them in the past and still prefer the 1 disc theory thats why i think the combined DVD/MP3/MP4 option would suit my needs, im going to get hold of one just now, any recommendations ?
The Rca cables wont be an issue as ive done all that before with amps etc.
I also understand that the live feed could be got off the current power source, is this crucial or could it come from another constant power source with inline fuse ?
The reason i ask is that when polishing my motor etc i do like to have music on without having to have the keys in the ignition.
I love the sound of being able to plug in what you want when you want with Rca and power lead floating, it seems i need to make some decisions  Rolling Eyes

This is just mind blowing ... what happened to a good old AM/FM radio  Laughing  Laughing  Laughing
