I dont think I will need to push the sound thru the stereo because the tv has some decent sound... I was able to listen to the football game in the front while my daughter watched her show in the back!

PIE - Precision Interface Electronics

if you do a search for aux input, or IPOD or Sat radio input you will see many posts about the uniqueness of the ford radio with what is called CANBUSS, a newer comunication protocol. PIE backward engineered the control logic and can simulate some factory DVD commands ( the only devise that uses the aux button) this allows you to hook up aux devices with line level inputs ( RCA jacks)

Okay, here's one for you:

What about skipping? I haven't looked too much into the DVD player, but will it skip (like my old CD player used to)?

Props for putting this idea into my head!!!
