Well, I finally got it done. Before I had a PS2 hooked up to my car's screen, but then I realized... When the heck would I ever play PS2 in the car? But then it hit me - the iPod has video-out, yet I was only using my iPod's audio connection because the PS2 was taking up the video. Now it's complete! Every single Family Guy episode along with about twenty DVDs are all able to be played right from my iPod through my car's audio/video system. Here's a picture of what it all looks like:

Equipment used:
Pioneer AVIC-D1 (In-Dash Head Unit + Monitor + GPS)
iPod Video 60GB Black
ProClip Felt Holster for iPod Photo 30GB (Fits 60GB Video like a glove)
ProClip Vehicle-specific Mount (holster and mount need eachother to work)
iPod A/V Cable (wrapped in black electrical tape to hide)
Monster iCar Low Profile Charger (used only when needed, I like to avoid cables when I can)

Car:
2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse

Nice setup... although it seems it could be quite distracting while driving, lol
