I was wondering if anyone knows where to pick up a outdoor TV/DVD combo unit as I want to position it above the spa under the pergola and would like a all weather one!

They're not cheap mate and you wouldn't want it to get pinched at that price

Re: Cheap LCD TVs (Tyagi)
If you can Scot, just put a little iron roof above it. A mate of mine done that years ago and the TV is still going.

If you don't get a HD TV then you won't be able to tune in the extra channels which are only available on the HD digital tuner.

Re: Cheap LCD TVs (Tyagi)
I agree with Jalal; I can easily tell the difference between SD and HD on our 42inch LCD, and it's not even a full-HD screen. I wouldn't say the difference is as noticeable as it is between analogue and SD though... I don't know how much difference there is between HD and full-HD either, but couldn't justify the extra cost of the full-HD TV, and was already more than impressed with the upgrade from analogue after the SD set-top box died
Scot, you could put a sheet of perspex in front of the TV to protect it from the weather (assuming it's going to be wall-mounted and already partially protected by the pergola). Either that, or upgrade your spa to one with built-in screens and speakers (I saw them at a home show earlier this year, and I didn't see the prices, but I bet they'd cost more than a new X-Trail!). I built small enclosures for speakers and mounted them under the eaves of the garage, and they've survived for a few years already, and they're far enough away not to be splashed by energetic kids in the spa...
