it is possible .. BUt i wouldnt want to be the one to try...

Its outputted as a signal that goes to the lcd scren it uses.. You would need a rca convertor and some hours of trying ****...

I would just try to see if the manu makes a screen thats bigger .. it may have the same pinout

I think there's quite a few people looking for that! only haven't heard much on the progress lately (or release date)

No, that still requires a PC. I have an in dash dvd player, that can display from external sources, just like any TV/Monitor can, via RCA connections. I want the Commander to display on my screen rather than on it's own shitty green screen.

Just get an HKS CAMP system. It displays everything nicer than the commander can anyway.

This my friend would be called a datalogit, hooked up to a modem under your seat or glove box and ran to your kenwood monitor via video cables.

Commander isn't just a display. If I could do this, I would then integrate the commander buttons into the Shift panel or something, like a few others have done here.
