oh and can someone tell me how it gets connected up to the HU ? for sounds, i think it only has speaker on it and headphone jack no other audio outs, or is it the headphone jack thats used, or is the sound connected up with the PS2? like instead of connecting the sound leads to the tv i'd connect them to the HU, so its PS2 - HU for sound not TV to HU

To hook it up to ur headunit u just take the red and white wires from ur ps2 to the headunit (if uve got an aux in), u bypass the screen speaker.

If you dont have an aux in, u have to do something with fm modulators or soemthing, i dunno

the screen is linked to a computer which i built into the glove box to get the CD info screen up.

It was supplied by a guy off ebay a few months back, for around £200 if i remeber right! Its a lilliput screen and there are still a few coming up on Ebay now and again I have seen
