DVD - I want to watch while driving the ML!!!

I am picking up my loaded 09 ML320 blutec on monday. What needs to be done to be able to view the DVD while driving? My passengers may want to watch something while I drive

I know there is a way to do it - let's hear it from the experts out there!

The new Range Rover has a screen that can display two images at the same time, one visible by the driver and one by the passenger. It was featured on Top Gear a few months ago.

In the US, Mid City Engineering has what the OP wants. But I'm with am_beagle.

just fyi, the ebay one is significantly better priced and supposedly is able to work simultaneously with nav, unlike the mid city one which disables nav in order to work.
