If you want pic click on the link in my sig and enjoy.
If you have any ?'s just ask.
Where did you get your monitors from? I finally got a chance to look at a few up close and wasnt really impressed with the quality on most of them. The sharpest picture came from the sony 5.8". Of course that could have been because they were running 1 video feed to about 7 different monitors, but anyway the sony stood out. Those of you that have them already, are you happy with the picture quality on them. I really would like to do this right the first time. F.Y.I. I am actually considering this monitor to be used for a mobile PC

I think the best DVD bang for your buck in a car, is a laptop computer. Can be used in car, or moved into anywhere else. My new Toshiba Satellite 1.13GB Celeron cost $799 at Costco, and plays DVDs (perfect quality playback), mp3 playback, DivX playback, all Windows Media and Real Networks playback, and has wireless WAN card added for anywhere in-city Internet access. In General, it does WAY, WAY, WAY more things than any car DVD player. If I watch a really cool DivX video movie in my car, and want to show my friend, I can unplug my AC to DC adapter and go inside his house and show him on lithium battery power. For now, I've been setting the laptop on my seat, but I will SOON buy one of these mobile laptop mount brackets (or else make one): http://www.laptraveler.com/automounts.htm
But you heard my opinion. I would never spend 600 on something that can only play DVDs and can't be mobile (so I don't have to leave it in my car for someone to steal it). Plus I can study online for my schooling anywhere I may be, for just 300 more than the plain old stationary car DVD cost

The dvd player I have in the car can play in the house or in the car. And it also plays,dvd,svcd,vcd,mp3,cd.
If I wanted laptop in my car would have gotten one and put it in. But I am not with hiding it or taking it out eveytime I get out of the car.

The DVD player that I have is the same size as the Sony headunit (regular indash CD player), and it plays DVD,CD,CD-R,CD-RW and MP3 compatible, and it also came with a remote. I payed $400 Canadian for it.
