anyone have any ideas how to bypass the safety to play the DVD. I can deal with not changing destination during travel. I cna pull over and do it in 5 min, but having a DVD player would be cool for my passengers </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

I have an 04 F-150 with the Eclipse Nav system installed by the dealer. Originally, I would have to stop and depress the emergency brake to have full use of the Nav (data entry). PIMFA! I took it to a different ford dealer and the tech fixed it in 5 mins. He said that a wire that it receives power from was grounded to the emergency brake. All you have to do is ground in to the frame instead. No mention of a switch though. I have no idea how to do this or even if it is accurate info. It's just what he told me. Anyways, I have full access (including watching a DVD) while the truck is moving.
