Got one... finally blo*dy got one :)
Finally found one, 500mile round trip to collect it...... ticks every box and I simlpy just LOVE it.
Spending more time at the petrol station but really, who cares, the sound of that V8 engine is worth it.
When the weather improves I will post some pics.
Question: as we all know the TV/DVD screen disables when you drive, you only get the sound through. If somebody wanted the picture to be atcive whilst moving how would one do this??
Please nobody preach about tha law etc etc... I am just asking out of curiousity

Congrats on finally finding the one you wanted....welcome to the clan.
Never anthropomorphise computers. They hate that.
Re: Got one... finally blo*dy got one :)
Nothing unlawful for the passenger to watch the screen. I think it should be an option to switch it on, decision should be yours, not the manufacturers ...

TV in motion cable from Toysinyourcar (better than ebay cables) or Resler (go to a meet where ITBarbie or Lez or X555 et al are present and they will do it for you).

I think that it is an unsafe practice and an absolute outrage that you are even asking us this question tut tut tut ..................
Ohh! and one other thing ...................when i did mine i used a resler and navcoder to do it
As pvr said no probs if the passenger wants to watch it.I activated mine as when the two little money pits in the back needed the dvds changing we could see what we were doing with the remote on the front screen(passenger only of course ) .Better than having to stop pull over and do it or try and lean over to see the rear screens

Is it easy to do? What do you have to do?

Re: Got one... finally blo*dy got one :)
The easiest is to be nice to a Resler / Navcoder owner. You offer them something they want....they enable it for you!!! Easy!!! Next easy way is to plug the TV in Motion cable in (comes with instructions ). Most difficult = buy a Resler and Navcoder and learn to use them, then enable your own .
