Re: In-Car Portable DVD Player Question
Thanks for the offer Pete.
Can you please tell me where the wires are coming from in your unit? is it similar to xtrailing where the 12volt cord is located on the side? If yes, then I don't think it will fit on the centre armrest between the 2 front seats, as the distance between them is 19cm exactly.
The wires on the sony unit come from the back and it measures 19cm wide and 24cm long.

Re: In-Car Portable DVD Player Question
Hi Guys,
Thanks for all your responses and suggestions.
I have considered my options carefully over the weekend and decided to go with the SONY unit, which I have just bought
It was more suited for my needs and would make great fun for the kids at the back (especially when they plug-in that PS2 in it) LOL
I haven't yet fitted it and will probably do so this weekend (I have to hide it from my wife in the garage until then )
Will take some pics when I do.
Cheers guys.

Re: In-Car Portable DVD Player Question
Hi Guys,
Got home this afternoon and the wife wasn't there (luckily for me)
So I ran like a 10 year old hiding from his Mom and started un-packing my new toy to test it out
I'm extremely happy with this unit and the way it fits between the 2 front seats gives an impression that it was tailor made for the Exy
I have tested my DVD collection and it accepts everything and any region discs
The best thing about it was that the back of the player (where the speakers are located) is flat and it has actually increased the height of the centre armrest and I can lean on it comfortably while driving (an added bonus to the hopelessly low arm-rest)
I guess it's now for the kids at the back.
I wish I could get someone to drive me around while I sit at the back and watch movies on long trips LOL
Here are some pics, which I managed to take (before my wife got home)
The other good thing about this player is that it's black and will be practically invisible from the outside when folded down (with my 20% tint of course)
I have not tested the FM Transmitter yet, not enough time to do that today.

Re: In-Car Portable DVD Player Question
Hi Guys,
Those of you who have a slim-line PlayStation 2 and would like to use it in the car as a DVD player, can now do so in style.
Thanks to THIS product, which is now available to buy from JB Hi-Fi for $259 (includes: remote, 2x controllers, car adapter and 8" screen)
Just bought one for my bro. in law
