Uh... you will find it next to impossible to integrate an aftermarket DVD system to your factory RSES control. My recommendation is to have the audio play through your system via an RF modulator.

The VaisTech folks may have something that will make it so you can do what you are trying - they are a vendor/supporter of this site, you may want to check them out. I have one of their adapters (I'm only interfacing an iPod but they have some with Aux inputs that may give you a solution). The VaisTech product, support, and promptness are all outstanding in my experience - and no splicing or cutting of any wiring - all plug n play

I've use this littlefuse add-a-circuit by tapping cigarette lighter ( I don't smoke)
when i've installed my DVD headrest 2 yrs. ago, never had a problem with it.

heres the link:

i couldn't agree more. i bought a VAIS unit on ebay and they replaced it for me and walked me through the installation. their customer service is top notch.
