IS350 Navigation Questions
I'm looking at getting a 2007 IS350 with the factory navigation. I want to add the ipod integration kit to it. I know with the ML you can hack the system to play DVD's. The one I'm looking at doesn't have ML. Can you still hack the system to play movies off of your ipod? I tried searching the forums and couldn't find any info on this. Thanks for your help.

Yes, it an old topic and lots of people have done it. But some of us, albeit a minority, think it’s dangerous. With the possibility of talking your eyes off the road at 70mph to either watch a DVD or manually input a destination may be the cause of a serious accident, not only to you, but to those in the other car who may now lose their lives.

It doesn't have to be in every single thread talking about the nav hack. Besides, you're interfering with natural selection.

Anyways, the only concern with the hack is voiding your warranty and cutting into OEM wires.If something were to happen in the future, you dont want to find out that the nav hack was the cause of it.
btw: theres a lot of cars that allow you to change directions and maybe even watch movies on their factory navi screen. I think acura has the capabilities to do so.
