I have an '07 Limited Edition Town and Country. It came with a 6-disc CD/DVD Changer, but not the rear LCD Screens. I was going to have an after-market DVD player installed, but want it to be integrated with the factory installed changer. Does anyone know if the Chrysler systems have audio/video output wires on the back of their system so I can do this? I'd rather get a non-factory DVD player since they are higher quality/larger screens/lower price.

Has anyone out there experienced a problem with the Video system cordless headsets not working on the 2006 Chrysler Town and Country Limited?
They worked fine until I had to have the 6 CD changer replaced, then they quit working.
The dealer has no troubleshooting information on the system. DVD sound comes through the normal speakers just fine.
Is the signal to the cordless headsets transmitted from the video display unit?

#7 of 138 New 2008 Town and Country with MyGig and Sirius Radio but no GPS... by mattlscc

Is there a simple way to add GPS with a navigation DVD? I already have the touch screen with the myGig and the Sirius Satellite radio.
 
Is there any additional hardware I need to get GPS? Am I only missing the software?
 
Any ideas on how much it would cost to get the Chrysler GPS put in? What are other options out there?
 
Thanks so much in advance!

#8 of 138 DVD player in Town & Country by cshowalter

We bought a used 05 Town & Country & the DVD (single disk) player did not work so they have replaced it with another used one. I have tried 6 DVD's in it and only one of those have worked. I have tried Cd's and one time it will work the next time it doesn't. The Dvd's are newer ones (all within a year) and none of them are scratched. Anyone have any idea why the DVD's are not playing? or do I need to call the place we bought it again? Thanks!!

Has anyone noticed that the 2008 MyGig system doesn't display correct CD info for anything newer than 7/2007. How annoying is it to have all NEW CDs come up as untitled track#.

I was wondering if anybody happen to know a way you could get around watching movies while driving on the main, front, screen. My son likes to sit in the front seat and I didn't think about it when I bout the van, but I didn't get the screens for the second and third row. So he can't even go back and watch something. If anybody could help I would appreciate it. Thanks a lot.

There's a way but it isn't cheap. Do a Google search for FreeGIG. It's an aftermarket plug-in module that requires you to plug it into the rear of your MyGIG (you might have to remove it to gain access).
 
At around $350 it's not cheap. My opinion on the price is that I could purchase an entire stand-alone DVD player with a larger screen than what's on the MyGIG for less than 1/2 of what this FreeGIG costs.

That is true. I was just looking for a way around having to buy a whole new screen. But it would/could be cheaper. Thanks for your advice.

Make sure its legal in your state to have a movie playing in the front while you're driving also.
