Does anyone know if the sat nav system in a 2005 300 can be hacked to play
video DVDs?

Sure hope not. In-dash video entertainment is a spectacularly bad idea.

Well yea, it would be a bad idea if you were to watch it driving down the
road, I have a small TV in my truck... I don't watch it while im driving
and wouldn't watch a DVD either

And after you send them your nav unit and they open it up and solder
something new inside the warranty is voided, and when you get it back if
they made a mistake and your car catches fire and burns to an ashy spot on
the street will they replace your vehicle?, because Chrysler won't.

Your right they do have to install device in it, with the jacks, I was told
that i had to use the dealer to send it in, I could not do it myself. the
cost to the dealer was 700.00, I could buy a good DVD player for that.

It's scary though because there are people out there doing exactly that.
Used to just be people reading the newspaper or shaving behind the wheel.
Now we have to worry about being stopped in traffic and the guy behind us
is watching some damned movie.

Y'know that idiotic TV show "Pimp My Ride"? The blizzing-blizzing yo-yo
muthatrucka-yo-yo-strizzeet-yo retards who run that shop recently got
fined thousands of dollars by the Federal DOT (NHTSA) 'cause they removed
the driver airbags from cars and replaced them with TV screens hooked up
to DVD players.
