Are you referring to http://www.nav-tv.com ? I looked under Products/Kits -> DOMESTIC and I didn't see Corvette listed...

Let us know what you find out, I would be highly interested in making the NAV screen more multi-function.

Well I didn't expect to generate so much interest. NAV-TV offers DVD;TV Front & Rear etc added directly through your LCD. When I called they stated that they hadn't worked on a C6 but they would be happy to use my car to experiment. I firmly believe they will be able to set the vette up. I just do not want to be the guinea pig.

do you (or them) know... from what i understand.... the nav systems in these C6's only have a 256 color screen? try changing your video settings on your PC to 256 colors and take a peek at what video, jpg's, or anything else looks like in 256 colors.

i'm certainly not the expert here, but if what i've read is correct and these screens have a hardware limitation of 256 colors.. this is a deadend road.

I sent a message to Denso and asked them if they could tell me the specifiations of the NAV screen so if they do respond with that info, I will post it here.
