just google it!.....

i still bet it's illegal in 50 states to do that... other wise it (the dvd player) would be in the back and not be a problem.

In the CTS-V I know that if you depress the parking brake ever so slightly so that it doesn't actually do anything that it will play movies or whatever while driving, but I doubt that would work in a Deville because you'd have to confuse it into being in park.

It would require you to mess with the wiring going to the neutral safety switch, which would also allow you to crank the vehicle while in gear, not a smart move at all, also riding around with the parking brake on, even ever so slightly will still wear stuff out, so that's not advisable either, best bet, if you wanna watch a movie, park the damn thing.
