There is a company in Australia (Audio Express) or member Chris Rogers who sells the on steering control module. It is an easy self install.
I installed an Asuka Digital TV tuner which connects to the OEM TV tuner and then got a cable from the US that plugs into the base of the Ipod and has the 3 RCA plugs plus a power cable which is plugged into the Asuka TV tuner. You need the Factory T tuner to be able to do this.
So yes, playing through the OEM screen VIA the TV tuner.
