Hey guys,

Im still pretty new to this, just buying xr just over A month ago. I wrote this post in a previous “Premium Sound Icc And Dvd Head Unit Install topic” (edited this one a bit more) but I've noticed no one has posted in there for a while so I thought I'd put my two cents in and see if anyone could help me out.

I've got a bf turbo with premium interior icc and all that jazz and want to utilize the colour screen with a DVD player (previously had a VZ Calais with double din). So after doing a bit of research reading what some of the guys had to say, I know I have to get an rgb convertor from ASL, now my issue is what DVD player to go for (which has capabilities for the convertor - I rang the asl dudes in Queensland or Victoria, I forgot which one $390 for convertor I think he said). Also noticed Alpine do a hub center thing? But don’t know if anyone’s used or actually does them here in SA? or the $ of these.

These days (2012) it's rather difficult trying to find a single din DVD player (w/o sliding screen) since most ppl use double dins, but in our case cant! Im kinda fussy with this sorta stuff and was wondering if anyone could point me I'm the right direction (brand ect) cause I really dont want use that cheap looking one asl provide or use. If anyone could post photos of menu's displayed (from their dvd players to the icc) it would be greatly appreciated, as I dont wana go for a player which has an ugly menu ect.

Also guys it looks like the only half decent players these days I’ve found are... something like the PHILIPS CED228 and Pioneer DVH-335UB. I'd like to find one with outlets on the rear and use cables to glove box or hidden to save cluster, (USB / IPOD extension – instead of having a usb hanging out the front). Sorry guys may seem heaps fussy, just used to the neatness of my previous double din, don't mind spending the extra $coin to make it suit my needs. So if anyone's keen to help or point me in the right direction or people/places they know of which are good to help, I'm open to ideas! cause I wana do it in the next few months :)

jvc make a good single dvd non sliding , with ipod input, has a good layout not cheap like the xtrons interface(what asl use)

alipine pro requires a unit called "orb" to control the unit , basicly it just uses the icc screen for an interface.. the orb is an control unit u mount somewhere ,(not so pretty) , the unit gots for about 700 bucks
