What do I need?

In order to get video to your nav screen, you'll need a video module or an oem tv tuner. I assume that you dont have a tv tuner, so you just need a video module. I went with the NavTool. It wasnt very expensive and had 2 video inputs including backup cam trigger. There are also others. A very popular one is the Dietz 1260 from EAS. Ask for Tom, he can help you.
As for the music/sound part, youll need a fm modulator OR a direct connect using the Dice kit. Dice silverline is very nice, but I read that if you want to queue up movies, you cant do it with the dice silverline since it locks up clickwheel operations. Thats why I went with the older dice i-bmw-t kit. Im not sure if its available anymore.

Anyway, to watch movies with the NavTool video module, you just flick a switch and then you can watch movies on your nav screen. There is no controlling it from your nav/radio. With the dietz 1260, i think you can activate video by clicking and holding the clock button for 5 sec.

One last thing, im not sure if the old dice i-bmw-t kit will work with 1stgen iphones. I have the 5th gen ipod (non osx ipod). I thought I read somewhere that old dice didnt support it.

Anyway, good luck and be sure to help others when asked.
Post some pics if you do decide to start your project.
