i got it off E-bay for 74 bucks

super cheap and well worth it
picture is sharp and high quality
sound is loud enough for everyone in the car to hear




install was easy...with the help of a friend...just hard wired it to the 12v source and grounded the wire to a screw in the back and presto
ps2 in the car
oh and i had to buy a power inverter which was like 39 bucks

Why don't you get a fm modulator. It will connect the screen to the radio so you can hear everything out of all your speakers. I got mine for about $30. You just set it at 87.9 or 89.1 and when you have the radio at that station you will hear everything. It's surround sound for your car. If you have good speakers it will be like if your at the movies.

is there a way to wire it directly so that it uses the cars 6 speakers for sound? is that FM modulator always clear? does it get interference?

[hr]fm modulator will work great with no probs [hr]
Yeah it works great, but since it runs off the radio the reception/sound quality is crappy *or at least mine was*. I wouldn't recommend going with the fm modulator unless you don't have much money, go for an aux output/input if you cd player has it otherwise just purchase one for around $90. Just my $.02
