If you can afford it, I would suggest getting the DVD and in dash monitor all in one. This make installation a whole lot easier. Eclipse, Pioneer or Alpine would be very good brands to get. You may have to get separate units as most companies make DVD players as slave units not stand alone's.

Hey Ken, yes you can watch TV while driving ( not recommended ) but all these units have a safety feature where the units have to see the hand brake ( - ) and also regular brake ( + ) in a sequence before they will activate the video portion of the system. This is easily bypasssed with a single toggle switch that will duplicate the hand brake part of the procedure.

Some have the built in TV tuner but most you will have to buy as a separate optional piece. Kenwood has one and it's model number is KVT-M700 ( monitor ) and the DVD player is KNA-DV2100 . The DVD + Monitor is model KVT-911DVD and Kenwood has one now that also incorporates the GPS navigation along with the DVD model KNA-DV2100

Some on this forum trying to sell a Pioneer Indash player for $ 1000.00 . May want to look into this. Please note that you are on your own when you purchase items over the internet from people who sell privately. Sometimes it's better to pay a little extra and get a peice of mind knowing that the thousand dollar money order that you sent will result in product shipping to your door.
