[alphabeatsco]

how does ppeople fit their monitors and dvd player n their civics?
on civics..its only got one deck size...

and with MON and DVD player u'll need 2 deck space...
pelase help.

[bigdongers]

you can buy an all in one single din unit with flip out screen, dvd, cd all built in.

Otherwise, you put the screen in the dash and fit the dvd elsewhere like in the glovebox.

[alphabeatsco]

fitting the dvd player under the ash tray ...
does it fit perfectly? or need to drill holes and stuff

[alphabeatsco]

i saw a dude on ozhonda had portable dvd player on his euro and fitted a monitor by itself....

would that work? cos the car will be shaking during dirving?

[alphabeatsco]

also will portable dvd players be able to connect to my amp!?

You cannot connect a portable DVD straight to the amp. You will need to connect the Audio RCA from the Protable DVD player straight into a Aux input on your deck. Then the Video line into a Monitor that you have.

Can you state your budget.....

Cause putting a DVD player into your car is not cheap. Its an expensive venture.

Well if your just running a PS2 and a normal monitor IE just monitor and not a receiver unit you will need to get a power converter that connects into your cigerette lighter (converst from 12 volts to 240 volts) and also a FM modulator. Another way you can do is. If your head unit has Aux input all you do is connect the video cable to your monitor and then the Audio RCA to the Aux input....

if ur monitor doesnt have an in built television receiver, is there an add on u can buy?

Well it depends if your monitor have the function to tune TV channel or not. I think I have seen the tuner box for about $100 on Ebay.
