Theres a few in car DVD players on ebay which I think are a good price! It's just I aint got a clue how to make them work etc, and I know some of you will have DVD players in your cars? I was wondering if you can play X-Box's etc off them and do they run off the ciggy lighter?

Help please

Where do you get the screen from mate? And does it fit straight in? And is it hard to use?

i have a motorised alpine screen and a tv in the boot that i got from a local place, was £180 quid but its the best!
the dvd player is quite simple, i've just got it in the glove box so not that bothered, it does the job.

ok mate, i bought one exactly like this from ebay, u need to be careful because they are just a screen, therefore no internal amp to run your speakers etc, and most dont have speaker outputs so you need tyo think about how you run your system.

I had a few problems but all is ok now

Hope this helps you.

I have that screen you put on the link, its very good and u can use your ps2 ect.. with it all you will need is a power inverter which changes the vaultage. There not to hard to fit just like fitting a head unit
