beatsonic has 2 option pieces that i believe that let you play your dvd on the oem screen and feed the oem screen signal back into the after unit too. i never tried it though.

Does the navigation still work? If so, does the sound as well? Assuming volume control is all by the aftermarket unit.


Looks great, I bet the sound quality is amazing.
