Yes you just have to have the emergency brake on.

Oh that's the wrong cord though, you need the one that plugs in the bottom of your phone, where you charge it.

The 2010's don't have the RCA jacks, just a USB. I have a jump drive with some divx movies on it I will play and report back. I was told the car had to be in park to play movies, didn't know it had to have the emergency brake on too. Also, the DVD/CD player will play movies (according to the dealer I bought mine from) but I have not tried that either.

Your CD player does NOT play videos on the screen.

Are you sure? because I have the cord that plugs to the iPhone and the other end plugs to the iPod input jack on top of the RCA input.

All you need is to get a RCA --> iphone jack from someplace like dealextreme.com and then hook it up to the G37 rca inputs. I did this before on my 3G but after the new firmware it wasn't compatible with the dealextreme cord.

Guess I'm behind the times then. Thanks for enlightening me, I didn't know that.
