Default Is it possible? - TomTom

I have the standard ICC in by BF XR6.
Like most SatNavs, TomTom has a bluetooth phone capability, which allows for control over the phone through the TomToms interface (calls etc..). Was wondering if it was possible to wire the TomTom through the ICC, and also put an additional mic overhead. So basically, set the TomTom up like an in-car kit where all I have to do is bring the TomTom into the car and plug it into its little connection at the bottom?
I know its a long shot, but it would be sick if it works. Saves getting a whole new in car kit. But then, I dunno how that would function for music play.

Cheers,
Liam.

No it's not possible.

The ICC takes a RGB input and it will need to be the right resolution to suit. There is no provision for a touch screen but it's pretty easy to modify and put and overlay over the top.

The best option is to buy a chinese gps box that outputs RGB and add the touch screen overlay (make sure you buy one that supports a touch screen). It will cost you about $200 all up.

I know this because I've done it myself.

All the information on how to do it is on the internet. I might finish my write up on it one day!

Good luck.

I don't mean physically into the ICC. I mean have the TomTom how you normally would mount it with the suction cap to your window and then have that USB connection which goes into the bottom somehow hooked up to the ICC like an AUX connection, and a in-car kit style mic also hooked into the tomtom connection.
