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.

You'll need this adaptor cable

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.

If you bought the recommended lead then it should be fairly straightforward, remove the connector from the tuner module and connect the adapter lead inbetween. Your new receiver should now connect to the video and audio inputs. Select AV on the head unit and you should be sorted.
