You sure can! This is called Video in Motion (VIM). Check out the topic on the excellent audienthusiast.com website. You will need a VAGCOM cable though. I personally have done this mod for the same exact reason as you. My kids love watching movies in my cabrio. The surround sound is pretty good too!

Note that here in the UK you would still get done for driving without due care if a copper saw you drive by with a video runnin - even if you aren't watching it, if there are moving images in your eyeline it still counts. What's the law like in Belgium?

 

Mmm good point, never heard of that here but not sure I will check that!

Vagcom cable is a item much spoken about. Where can one purchase that and what's the cost?

Thanks for the help so far guys, good to hear it's possible to do this!

Theres a great beginners guide here.

You will find some useful links for all you can accomplish with vagcom here, and a link to the manufacturer's website.

The USB cable (Ross-Tech Store: VCDS License with HEX-USB+CAN Interface) is $349, then just download the software. You will also need a laptop.

 

Just did the video in motion mod. The web serial / passcode calculator at VIM login-code generator for MMI 3G worked for the facelift S5.

It's awesome. Wow.

 

Great help and support from all of you ?. I will dig into this ASAP!

Stay safe!

to bad thats the worst idea ever. This is a b8 not a minivan.

 

I have those audimad but can't use them with the s seats. At the end of the day it's a matter of personal self discipline.

 

True. As I said previously in this thread it is something I will check.

Rgds,

Great idea mate.. Have something that can distract you while you have your child in the car... Genius!

 

yeah,then,whilst you're distracted, you can lose control and terminate the little sod (and yourself)
