The Hi-Line doesn't directly support the addition of a DVB-T, it needs an adapter kit I understand.

The DVB-T receiver will work far better, if one is sourced which is able to support the built in TV antennas.

It needs to be a type which supports two antennas and is able to provide power via the coax too.

Reception via the built in antennas is brilliant, where as there have been lots of complaints of poor reception using poor quality after market antennas.

Fix a poor handbrake; DIY ABS diagnostic unit; Loan of the spanner needed to change the CDT belts; free OBD diagnostics +MAF; Correct Bosch MAF cheap; DVB-T install in an ex-hi-line system; DD install with a HK amp; FBH servicing.

I've taken a vow of poverty. To annoy me, send money.

You'll need this adaptor cable

http://www.toysinyourcar.com/acatalog/rov_av.html

connection is made inline with the video unit located in the boot and it would use the AV channel to display.

Do a search through the ICE section as there's many threads on the same subject.

Yes!

It is a combined TV receiver and video module. You cannot do away with it, because it puts everything on the screen.
