In-car Entertainment (dvd)

[torrent]

Has anyone here forked out to have a DVD in-car entertainment system installed in their GS? Could someone answer some of my quessies?

1) Do they normally require the Lexus standard head unit to be replaced or can they be mounted separately in the rear somehow

2) If they do replace the head unit in the front, are they still able integrate it with the touch screen display (I have Sat Nav installed)

3) Final question, based on experience, where's the best place to get the equipment from and installed (proven installation track record and Gold member discounts) - I'm located in the South-Central (Berkshire)

Thanks to anyone who can throw light on some, or all of these questions.

Torrent,

I have a DVD/TV/PS2 set up in the 430, basicaly for the kids in the back. Screen is mounted above the rear air vents (bought from eBay for £75) I fitted the power inverter in the center console. PS2 is on the floor in the back (will be moved to boot soon).

Works a treat............ :D

Sounds great!

Any chance of a pic of your screen?

Are you using the PS2 as the DVD player?

I plan on picking it up as soon as I have some cash laying around....after buying rims :P

Looks interesting although I actually want the DVD to be piped to the rear of the car. Not too fussed about DVD in the front.

I'm sure this product answers a couple of questions I have seen floating around the forums recently regarding the conversion of the in-built Sat Nav to DVD/tuner viewer.
