Question though, can it display DVD films for entertainment?

Can it be used to play music or MP3 cd?

As the car is fitted with Factory 6cd changer and boost....can this usit play MP3 ?

please advise .

Your head unit can be used for playing MP3's, I'mnot aware that the Sat Nav canbe used for films or not, the reader for the nav is located under the right hand side seat (drivers uk) maybe there is an add on for it to play films perhaps?

I am sure the head unit was a tape with the 6 disc changer in the boot.... will the 6 changer do MP3?

Not in an 04, only 05 up can play MP3 in the head units. The CD changer will not play MP3s in the 04 either.

The nav can play DVDs, but you have to buy an added unit for around 900 Euros. That adds back up camera inputs too.

But instead of asking here, wouldn't it be simpler to just put a disk in the changer and see?
