XBO 360 HOOKUP?
I am looking to perhaps put my xbox 360 in my 08 C. I have navi in it and I am wondering if there is a way I can connect my xbox 360 to that and play from there. I think this would look awesome if it is possible.

You will need to buy the VIM204p from midcityengenering. I think it's $450, and it has the av ports needed for the hook up. I was thinking about doing this a few months back, and hooking my laptop up to it to so I could have xbox live on the go.. =]

The vim is a thing u hook up to the back of your radio that makes the car think it's in park while watching a movie. For the back up camera you will have to get into the enginerrig menu and turn the aux video on. Just search or the thread about vim. It will help you alot..

The UCI or the midcity module would allow this. However, you cannot have both backup camera and video in, its one or the other.
The other issue you will have is how to power the xbox. You have 12v power in the glove box but an xbox wouldnt fit. The xbox woudl need to go in the boot and a 12v socket would need to be fitted if you dont have one already. You would also need to convert the power down to 12v using an inverter. After all that, using the xbox regularly would drain the battery.
I looked into this, and decided its not worth all the hassle.
