DVD and TV in 2004/5 W220

Here are some pictures of a US spec W220 S600 I recently worked on.
The US spec DVD comand was swapped for a eurospec DVD comand and a mercedes TV tuner plus rear monitor were added.
Both (video) DVD and TV are available on the front headunit and the rear screen...the rear screen has a set of RCA plugs at the bottomside for an additional playstation (or something similar) and the TV tuner (that is installed in the trunk - fully out of sight) has 2 sets of RCA plugs to connect to a DVD changer or something similar...

picture of the car before,
picture of the rear screen with the choice to watch TV, DVD, AUX (the one at the bottom of the screen), AUX 1 and AUX 2 (the ones on the TV tuner) and a possibility to go to system to change some settings
DVD in front and rear
overview of the OEM bracket for the rear screen
another picture of the bracket and rear screen...both the rear screen and the bracket for the screen can be adjusted into different directions

Interested in similar modifications, mail me at Steve@MBenzNL.com

greetingz,

As we just bought a 2001 S500 I would also like to know if the comand center (stereo whatever) can be swapped or adapted to have the functional dvd screen in the back.
