Wanted: Watch TV on my Navi...

I am electrically inept.
I am looking for someone in the midwest area who can help me get my Navigation to receive TV stations. I need estimates ($$) for
1. Hardware/equipment
2. Labor

I can drive up to 3 hours or pay mileage for your commute. Anyone???

Alls you need is a TV Tuner attached to your modified RGB circuit board(ie..Video Navi Kit) and you'll be able to watch TV. I'm gonna tell you this now, the reception is gonna be pretty crappy, so don't rely on it too much.

Blackshadow, has this in his TL and the reception is on and off depending on the area he's going thru. Most channels you can't watch, to bad, you can't subscribe to wireless cable

What if you put in an antenna (like the car phones) in the rear windshield?

Oh yea, forgot to mention that you have to get an antenna too, but that's the reception I'm talking with the antenna installed. Otherwise, you get nothing, absolutely nothing without the antenna.

Plan BPut my spare 26" TV in the passenger seat

I don't know what plan B is yet, I'll go to BestBuy and look at their 5" color TV and see if I can retro fit somewhere on the dash. This may include gutting out the case and just using the screen, maybe mounting it above the glovebox below the passanger air bags....
I just need a good working reception of a TV Station (for skyview traffic)
