Anyone tried with any success to re-purpose the NAV screen into a DVD screen? I can't stand the out-of-date software on it, and I don't feel like buying a new DVD for $150 bucks. I have a TomTom with lifetime updates for free, so I really don't feel I need the NAV screen at this point. Although if there was some way to get the TomTom to work through the factory NAV screen that would be awesome.

What year is the car or is it the one you have listed? That and the unit you have in your car
It's a 2008 Outback L.L. Bean. The unit I use is a TomTom XL.
Though it's a long shot there are a few companies that will make an auxillary video input for some OEM screens but you would loose all touch functions of the GPS. In short you would still have to access the TomTom to do anything. A few companies also sold some add on GPS units that used an IR style remote that could be made to work but I haven't seen one in some time.
I've basically surrendered to using the screen for fuel mileage feedback. I would like to replace the factory stereo though with one similar to the one I had in my Impreza.
