Who needs an airbag when you can catch Saved By the Bell during rush hour?

And if you're Rich from the Philly area & drive a sweet yellow max, you ALSO have 2-monitors in your... TRUNK!!!!

When I saw that, I just gave up and decided not to enter my ride in audio/video competition... that's why I've started selling my video system, piece by piece...

Very nice. Very clean. Too hard to see unless you are in the backseat or fully reclined in the front.

Nope, not so... But you can't drive & watch at the same time (of course), however you can leave the monitor on while you drive... but PLEASE try to focus on the road!...

What's wrong with leaving the TV in the Family Room? How can you drive and watch the TV at the same time?

Obviously, you haven't seen me drive... it's a sad site, with or without movies playing on the screen...

I was just curious, how does someone watch the monitors that are in the trunk?

BTW.. I used your instructions for wiring my radar detector into my autodimming mirror. What a great idea.! Thanks!!

They're for competition only... And that was my initial plan... but how can I compete with only 4-monitors, while others show up with 10+

How many times am I really going to watch a movie in my car?... that's why I'm selling & focusing on a decent MP3 AUDIO system now.

Glad the Radar instructions came in handy!... I also have another nice how-to that I wrote AGES ago (my first official mod) but haven't had the time to post it yet...

The tour buses for bands-on-tour have them. It's a GPS-guided dish, that automatically tracks the DSS sat, and swivels in almost every direction to follow the signal. It's to big to put on your Max, unless you are truly crazy! And from what I hear it costs a few thousand to install! Lucky bastards: they get tons of money, the hottest chicks, they get to tour the country, while watching 300+ channels in their damn tour bus.

Personally I think the visor screens are the best cuz they are stealthy and you can fold up the driver side so you can drive relatively undistracted.

My buddy has PS2 and GameCube in his car and he goes out to play games on his lunch. But he also takes his Gameboy Advanced to the can at work, so go figure...
