Hey people, anyone know if its possible to have the tape deck removed on the s2k and replaced with a dvd player? i dont think you could but maybe its possible with some brands? See i dont want to put a screen on the dash. cheers:thumbsup:

ohh so its like the integra setup.. you cant put it in a lower DIN space sooo i dont see any way of fitting a screen WITHOUT some customising.

at my work i knoe for a fact that the only dvd screen we've been able to fit in an s2000 is the JVC KD-AVX 11 or the 33 or the 44. Though kenwood have brought out a headunit which is pretty much identical to the 33. No single din flip out will fit.

want a screen in your car? sell the s2k and buy something that you can fit a screen to...

there is no way without a big $$$ custom job to get a screen in there, the other problem you will find is that your shifter will start slamming into the screen...

dont believe me? then do for your life and come back here to show us 'how' you did it :)

its not full custom that car is just really tricked out but i have seen lots of s2ks with that setup its only beacuse the dash has nothing behind there, beacuse in the jdm vertion there was a gps there ill try and get a photo up close if i see one its funny i havent seen many online but iv seen around 4-5 on carsales in the the past year with that setup

an s2000 is not the car you want to go sideways in watching a dvd, thats my personal opinion on this whole thread :D

Think you're skilled at car audio? Don't tell me, SHOW ME!!! In other words, PROVE it!!!

There's more to car audio than meets the eye...

Honestly (just curious), what is your intention of such a signature? Is it an indirect way of being up yourself...or do you genuinly want to talk to someone "skilled at car audio"? Also define "Skill" Engineering skill, installation skill...are we talking volumes, Qs values, frequency Response or are you talking about the great skill of selecting a brand/model and getting your local JB Hi-Fi to install it?

OnlyKillzz is trying to suggest installing it in the dash...provided as mentioned the dash behind is hollow...all you would have to do is dremel a suitable hole in the dash and use Right Angled brackets to attach...either cold weld it...or screw it in. It would take some planning but I definantly would not go anywhere near to say "Fully Custom".

Only issue would be is if you wanted to uninstall it in the future...a new dash would be quite costly xD.

Cheers

hey champ,

post up all your S2K queries in the s2k sub forum.

Most of us have been there tried that already and can give you the proper advice rather than people who says it does fit, when we clearly know it doesn't.

Have a read through the S2K FAQ topic stickied at the top, you will find most of your answers there.

Here's a more detailed topic already listed from the FAQ sticky.

They have 2 models of DVD-player+ GPS+Buletooth+TV+ipod on the market at the moment.
1DIN and 2DIN. You need to find out whether S2k fit in single DIN or Double DIN. If you need the DVD player i can get it directly from the Manufacture. Hehe
