With the prof nav is quite simple, although a little expensive .

Without nav I wouldn't know .. Possible I think, but not cheap . For sure .

Wait for someone more expert than me

I've just embarked on this very project! I have nav. pro on my car.

Got the retrofit hardware kit from a place in Germany via E-Bay, and also the Hybrid Digital TV module.

So far, I've mounted the tuner in the boot, replaced the antenna with the TV version (supplied in the kit).

I can update as and when progres takes place if anybody's interested?

Cheers

With the ACM module, this should work.
