Zune hookups

I did a search and can't find the answer to my question. What hookup do I need to play videos from my zune onto the navigation screen (while I am parked only of course)?? I know an Ipod would be better, but for the time being, I only have a zune. Please be specific so I don't buy the wrong thing. Thanks!

You need to buy the Audio/Video cable for the Zune. It needs to be a composite cable. This should work. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage....=1190678468231

Thanks for the info. What exactly does the term "composite" mean in reference to the cable in case I go to best buy and they don't have the product in the link. I am sure the salesman there won't know so I need to know to make sure they don't sell me the wrong thing. Thanks!

composite means RCA connects (red, white, and yellow) which is one video and two audio. There is a component cable you can get which is 5 cable that are RCA type connectors but they have 3 video and 2 audio. This cable is used for High resolution displays that have a component connection.
