If you dont want to upgrade ur headunit you can purchase fm modulators from jb hifi etc, for around 70-80. Basically they plug into the back of any headunit through the aerial socket, then the car aerial plugs into that. It is tuned to a specific frequency and you can just tune to that frequency to listen to ur dvds.
it has two rca inputs which will plug into your dvd player using rca-rca or rca-minijack.

What headunit do you have? If you have an aftermarket unit, pioneer, alpine, jvc etc you can buy line converters for the cd changer which creates an auxilary plug into the stacker input.

Peace

Cool if its got a stacker input at the back then the adapter you want is JVC-KSU57.
This splits the cd changer connector into two rca's. $79 at jb hifi here in Melbourne but I've only seen them at one store. I've bargained them down to $70 before. You can buy them off ebay for cheaper probably. Or maybe a JVC spare parts place

Thats probably ur best bet. Will give you better sound quality over the modulator.
