Need help wiht DVD's

I want to install a DVD player in the dash, and maybe another head unit just for radio below it in a double din setup or just a dvd that does it all. I have many questions about this. First, is there any in dash dvd players that have motorized screens and have everything you need to watch a movie, play a cd, or listen to the radio all in one unit. This would be ideal. If not, what other options are out there to set up an in dash dvd player. Do I need a player, a screen, and a radio. I have no knowledge in this area so any help you can give me would be great.

There are a ton of em' out there.... but be prepared to pay big $$$$ for it!!!

And those are just a couple. I wouldn't buy from crutchfield though.... they are a great company, 24 hour tech support, authorized dealers, free wiring harness and install kits...... but all that comes with an extra price! But then again..... you seem to have the money to spend!!!

I had the Pioneer 7300 DVD w/ 8000R brain. Did everything aside from MP3's, theres a Clarion unit out now that does it ALL. I saw it in the new crotchfield for $2k tho.

pm or email me for more info

hope that helps


spending 2 k is ridiculous and im not paying it and u shouldnt either:D

I recently bought the JVC KV-DV7. It's a 1-din DVD player and you can find it for under $300. It's a great looking piece. I haven't installed it yet, but I will soon.

Thanks for the info. The all in one units are nice but are extremely high priced. I have been reading more and may look to mounting a screen up from some how with the dvd player in the back or something. Would like it to be accessible however from the front seats. Might look to mounting under the seats or somethign. Thanks for the info. Oh, the clarion unit is pretty cool looking but out of the price range I am looking for by a thousand or so. Maybe when I get the tax return. Later all.

post some pics when u finally get it

sig test...I've got the Pioneer setup

I used a Pioneer head unit with Aux input adapter, a Boss DVD player that mounts in the rear, a 7 LCD screen mounted on the console. Plays any disc, CD, DVD, MP3 all through the stereo and speakers. Really does a nice job. Got the DVD stuff on Ebay dirt cheap, head unit was less than 200 and the input adapter was 40 bucks.

thats what im selling for 500 obo

i just bought a kenwood z910dvd for $610

it plays cd and dvds...doesn't play mp3's:(

it has a video out so you may mount your screen up higher, i'm planning to mount mine in the dash on a flip up setup.

problem with the ones that have touch screens is that the screen wears in the button spots and messes up your screen, anti glare coatings come off and so on. plus who wants your screen that low anyhow!

imo check it out its a good deal
