kjoy064 Member 276 Member For: 17y 9m 27d Gender: Male Location: WA Posted 30/03/07 04:51 AM Share Posted 30/03/07 04:51 AM I have been surfing the big wide web we all have access to and happen to find this little setup, yes I might have to get it from woop woop but worth the try and a saving of $200+.I am looking at doing the setup with a 1/2 din DVD player with only the 3 rca outputs (RED, WHITE & YELLOW) The audio side was never a drama because of the AUX we have as Std but the video to RGB has been the problem and not wanting to put a huge 240v STB & DVD player in the car this certainly helps.links : http://www.starcab.net/product_info.php?products_id=123 http://www.starcab.net/newsdesk_info.php?n...;newsdesk_id=34Have a look guys and I am awaiting a reply from them to see if they can ship to AUS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All you need is the Ford plug to wire it up and look smick and a little black component box from the local Dick Smith store and a 12v ingition power source and it's all go.Sp what next? I'm going to get a 1/2 din DVD player from the states and put that exactly where the tissue box is and have is looking good.Will box up some pic's when completed.

I got it in 10 days including the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
