Sounds right to me. it'll be a sweet set up too. You could look into having 2 cameras, one could show forward on one screen and back on the other. That would be sweet. Will the MPG, engine notification functions and all that still work too? Should, I don't see why not.

If you remove the satnav dvd player from the lil glove box the screeen won't be powered - you either need to leave it in there or rewire the screen.

You will need an RGB converter, like mentioned in this thread, to put the picture from your aftermarket DVD player to the screen.

You will then need a device to get the audio in to the cars stereo.

I believe that no one is answering your questions because all your questions are already answered in this thread. I realize there is a lot of reading involved, but all the answers are here.
