I don't know whether the factory DVD navigation system can play DVD movies or not. But the reason it's called DVD is because the medium used to store the navigation data is on a DVD disc.

Thats exactly why. The medium that is used to store the nav. data is in DVD format and uses a DVD processor, but it will not play DVD's. Sounds dumb, but trust me I have the alpine DVD navigation, and that doesnt play DVD's. The 2002 factory NAV will not even be able to be used as the monitor for any other video sources, as of yet. Some companies make conversion kits. I know they have one out for the Acura NAV so you can use it for other video sources, but nothing is out for the IS, and it would be something you would have to get aftermarket nothing Lexus is gonna offer.
i sure do hope someone makes an adapter for tha lexusNAV too! Lexus should keep that option available for people who want to use tha monitor for videos/DVD movies. i mean, who uses tha navigation system that much NEwayz! seems like a waste of monitor to me...
I think they do play dvd's because i was watching belly in my friend's lx470. The dvd player will only work if you have the parking brake up, but he had that removed, so we can watch dvd's all the time.
Does anyone know anymore about the LCD on the Nav unit, can it take other input's rather than the Nav?? I really don't know much anout the Nav unit in general, and of course most links in this subject are fairly old..

I need a stock front bumper. The ones going for $200 on ebay and such, are those pretty good quality? I know the body kits can be a headache fitment wise.
So I drive a 04 factory 5 speed. And the rear diff ration is a 3.7 if I'm not mistaken. And factory autos have a 3.9. I know people swap brz and frs diffs in because its a higher ration of 4.1+s to drift with. (Which I dont understand because 2nd and 3rd are fine with the factory diff.)...
