I am going to bye an indash tv soon and i'm trying to figure out how to wire it into my ford explorer, i am thinking about buying a lanzar or pyle tv but i want to keep my alpine headunit. i only want to use the tv for a monitor. so how do i wire it in, i am thinking that i will have to splice into the wires running my alpine head unit and that will get me my power ground and remote turn on, but how do i get sound do i wire that in too, or should i just fm modulate it, what if i am already running a fm modulated cd player, can i have two things that are fm modulated, thanks

how much are you paying for the screen and how big is it.

i can get a full 7 " motorized tv screen only for a good price

also i have a package with a dvd or a vcr

now for installing it you can tap in to all the power wires of your head unit. which alpine are u using some have an aux input that you can pt the sound through. if not getting another fm modulator and using a diff frequency with it shouldnt be a prob as long as you dont put them on at the same time which i doubt u would do anyway.

if u live in near me i can even give u a price with the intall plus the tv package.what kind of car is it?

let me know if you are intrested email me

i can get a pyle or lanzar fully motorized 7 in tv for $545, this would be to use in my ford explorer, my alpine head unit is a cda-7874, it has two sets of rca outputs but no inputs, and how would i be able to set the fm modulator to a different frequency is their a certain button or switch i need to change to get to that frequency. Thanks
