Question as above is there any way this can be done are there any spare inputs in the back of the comand unit to add a DVD player
Bear in mind this car was fitted with two tv screens then as it was analogue system it no longer produces a picture
I wonder if I could put in a DVD player that could out put to the screen using the tv input

In theory if you have AV in connections just connect to them and it should work. You won't get 5.1 or anything but if you're happy with stereo it should be fine.
Look in the input list on the menus to see if AV in is there. The 230 we have has 2 AV inputs.

Hi,

Best thing to do would be to phone a company called COMAND ONLINE.


https://www.commandonline.co.uk

Not sure if they are open but if you give them your VIN they will be able to tell you exactly what is and isn’t possible.

They have lots of great feedback on this forum.

Hope it helps.

I did get in touch with them re the TVs and weather it could get a digital signal they wasn’t very helpful

I have looked on line and it does see possible to put tv back but I don’t want tv signal would prefer dvd input
