Default Enable HDMI video while driving?

Is this possible? I know an ex-girlfriend's dad did this in a Lexus RX so he had video up front while driving.

On the 2014 EX model the video stops as soon as you shift out of park. Is it possible to override that somehow?

you can find kits online to bypass this safety feature or bring it to a local car audio shop and they will do it for a small fee.

Any ideas on who sells these kits? I've looked around and have had absolutely zero luck. Calling a car audio shop is a great idea!

Looks like you need something called a LockPick. The most popular website seems to be Costal Electronics, but they have absolutely NOTHING in stock for Hondas of any type right now. I emailed them and it doesn't appear they will have anything any time soon, either. The search continues.

yeah the newer hondas and most cars require some kind of smart box the older pree 2005 models just needed a toggle switch between the radio ground wire.there are other companies that make this same product so keep searching.
