RE: Thinking about putting a DVD system in my 300
you live in the new age of electronics, anything can be done... You might get on the phone with some of the bigger brands like eclipse audio and see what they can do for you. On that note, when I worked at best buy, they were talking about the new pioneer screen having a remote control and steering wheel controls as well. Now I don't know if they would have to be after-market, but if they were it wouldn't be difficult to splice some sort of connection. You might look into those as well, I mean any DVD player that would have steering wheel controls could always be configured to work with something else. It's electronics. Electronics don't know what's going on, I mean they didn't invent themselves. One more thought that I just had, but you would have to love your car for it, would be to make a new remote control, and plug your old steering wheel controls into it. It would be hidden from view, but the IR sensor would catch the same waves as the remote that came with it. So technically what you would be doing, is having two remote controllers, with one of them having each of it's functions activated by the buttons on your steering wheel. It's actually very simple. Maybe if any of these spark your creative interest, you can give me a shout back and we could work something up. I'm pretty good with this kind of stuff. not to brag, I just use it a lot...
