Default Installing DVD players

Hey guys,

As you know, I tried selling some Clarion touch screen DVD player and headrest monitors, but there were no buyers. So I have decided to keep them and install them in my S2k. Does anyone know someone I should go to?


Here is the for sale link if you want to see what kind of DVD player i am talking about. Thanks guys!

im sitting here with jeff and he said the only place you can install it is by cutting a hole in your dash. it wont fit in your stock head unit location. this is because it will hit your shifter or the dash itself when the screen pops out. you maybe better off selling this and buying a double din instead. that is what jeff has.

i don't want to do ebay. I just don't trust it. I would rather sell it local, but no biggie. Hopefully, i can install it on my S with no problems.

thanks for the suggestion though!

Okay... SO i just got back from Best buy and PC.Richard. I saw this Kenwood double din DVD receiver but the guys at both places said it does not have enough clearance. So i am left with no other options. Now that i can't put a dvd player in it, here are things i want.

1. CD player (will 1 din cd player work?) Anyone know a nice CD player with red color display?
2. Remote start & Security alarm package with display keypad which shows you if your windows are open and etc. (Funny how Bestbuy guy said, he can install it for me and PC.Richard kid said he won't do it, it is illegal.)

Anyone know anyone?
