Audio Install Disaster!! I need help-info!

Hey everyone, well, in about a month im throwin down some bills on a in dash pop out 7" motorised LCD with PS2....heres my prob. .

i want to hook up the PS2 to the tv for dvds but also keep then stock headunit for the cd player. I want to use the TV for the am/fm radio (yes it comes compatible for am/fm) so this is that im looking at

TV = am/fm radio and dvd w/ ps2
Stock Headunit - for CD player only

Can this be done!?! someone told me im gonna need to buy like 3 recivers or somethin!?! also, how much would a TV tuner cost for the LCD so i could watch the local news and TV while im driving??

I think you should only need a fm modulator ($50) and a module that connects to your speaker wire and transfers the signal to rca cables. That should be pretty much it. I dont know how much the tuner costs.

Are you seriously going to watch TV while you are driving? What about a DirectTV unit in the trunk? Not sure where to put the dish yet...

I'm only kidding. I also want an in dash TV unit for navigation, DVD's, PS2 etc. I just never heard anyone wanting it for TV also.

alrite. . . here your problem. . .

stock deck. . . a stock deck don't have RCA outputs in the back so if you wan't to build a system. . . a stock deck can't do it. . . it can be done, but you would only be recieving a anolog freq. so therefore it would sound like crap. ditch the stock deck

i don't know what kind of in dash your taling about. there are two kinds

version one- a plain screen. think of it like your comp monitor. if nothing is hooked up, it will nothing will display. has no sound outputs or anything. for this i would not get a in dash but i would get just the screen with a fan mount. and by the way. you will need an an after market deck, some type of input like a ps2 (i would hook up the ps2 because it plays dvds therefore you won't have to buy a dvd player.)

version two- a ture in dash. the in dash usually come with a dvd player and a screen all in one. it also will get radio stations and play cd (so you won't need three recievers) the better one are also touch screen.

if you have anymore questions just give me a private message.
trust me. i've don't all my audio installs myself so i know what i'm doing.
