my in dash flip outs are din size....i can get 1/2 din dvd players i think for about 150 and flush mount tvs for about the same......not visor mounts really but with a reverse camera you could replace your rear view with it......

what brand are the 1/2 din dvd players

smoker · Post by **smoker** » Mon Nov 28, 2005 7:01 pm

i can get a few, the ones i would recommend are absolute or microvision......not sure that microvision makes a 1/2 din but i know absolute does......we have been using them without a hitch, the monitors get a great picture and the dvd players work great...

there are a few out there that are pretty good like pyle believe it or not but micro and absolute seem to be the best that we have found so far....

i changed my mind again....i just wanna upgrade my electrical system. I only have a month left for this work term, and thats all i want to finish up with. If you remember, i have this co-op thing at my college where i go to school for 3 months and then work in my respective field for 3 months, and so on. So i plan on getting a 200A alt and upgrading my big 3 to 4 gauge. Can any of you think of anything else i might need? And if i upgrade more in the future, like amps, how much power can a 200A alt handle??
