LIVIPER Posted April 22, 2004 Posted April 22, 2004 I DO NOT have the rear entertainment package(DVD). I do have Nav. with the 6 disc audio changer. Does the standard front Nav screen come with DVD capabilities? Where does the dvd go?(it does not work in the 6 cd changer)
GS400jon Posted April 23, 2004 Posted April 23, 2004 The navigation system/screen was not designed to handle DVDs. Some people have found a way around this, although it's against the law in most states. The DVD player is located at the rear of the center console.
SKperformance Posted April 23, 2004 Posted April 23, 2004 you can add a dvd player and do some wiring or buy a module for about 400+ player and add it.
szerby Posted May 5, 2004 Posted May 5, 2004 If the car is in park and the e-brake lever is up, the front screen can show DVD's. Press the mode button on the steering wheel until hear the DVD sound and it saws DVD and Track number, then select the Audio button, and on the screen will be a PICTURE button on the touch screen. You will see the DVD movie and have complete DVD controls on screen.

gx470forme Posted November 9, 2004 Posted November 9, 2004 The front screen CAN play DVD's with the E-brake engaged ONLY if you have the ML/Nav option Coupled with the Rear Entertainment Option. If you DO NOT have the Rear Entertainment Option, then there is NO DVD player in the vehicle.
zube Posted November 9, 2004 Posted November 9, 2004 LX 470 LX470 !!!!!! THE FACTORY CHANGER PLAYS DVD ON THE NAV SCREEN ! WHEN CAR IS PARKED AND E BRAKE IS ON. BUT YOU CAN MODIFY SYSTEM TO PLAY WHILE MOVING.

THE ONLY WAY YOU GET A DVD PLAYER FROM THE FACTORY IN THE IN THE GX IS IF YOU HAVE THE REAR ENTERTAINMENT OPTION. PERIOD. AGAIN, THE STANDARD 6-DISC CHANGER DOES NOT READ DVDS
