Well I dont need a remote, just the screen and a way to plug it in. I see Part Express has screens, but thats just it. Im not an Electronics Genuis and dont want to solder to the PCB...

thoughts?
you already know I'm a purist when it comes to car audio. Hell, I'm the same way at home raelly. That's why my audio and my HT system are separate.
That being said, I do know how to set up a multi-channel system so if you run into problems, I'd be happy to answer anything ya need clarified specifically.

I am going to go through some things at work on monday and try and find a nice monitor with remote, ir, and maybe a couple of inputs and try to offer them here to members for a set price plus shipping.

just out of curiosity, how much interest is there here in monitors. what would ;you consider a good price for one?

keep in mind im not trying to push anything on anyone but if i can make it more affordable i will try.
i in no way shape or form benefit personally from this as i am paid by the hour and get the same check every friday regardless of what gets sold.

i just dont want anyone to misconstrue this into me trying to make a buck on the board because i honestly dont set the pricing and dont get any of the profits..

Im with Kiki still.

Theres only a few reasons why I want to toss this in there.

1) Give my passenger something to do while Im driving if its a long trip

2) Give me something to do while Im at a comp waiting in the lanes

:sm29:

Maybe I will just go with two 6" Monitors and put one on each side?

The possibilities with this car are endless, I dont care what I do to it!

lol

Taking it a stewp farther...

Been looking around and on E Bay I see some rather nice and large "Touch Screen Monitors"

So not just a DVD/Screen setup, but put a whole computer in the car...

Use the touch screen for a keyboard. Load all my MP3s up on it, let her rip...

The screen is like $350ish. By the time I buy a screen for $175ish, Radio $250ish, Modules for thes creen etc $150ish I can just put a computer in the car!

Nothing super fast, like a 1.5 Ghz or something. I have a sound car that has RCA lines out. Run it into a line driver to boost voltage....


Hmmmmmmmmm
