haha, its not that hard...my installs are all pretty ghettorific, you can still see exposed wires everywhere oh well, im not a professional installer and this beats shelling out mucho dinero for a pro. The hardest part is troubleshooting after youve installed everything. Something always goes wrong/loose wire/disconnection. Thats the biggest headache.

i had a lcd screen that was not name brand, and it lasted me a while and i had it in the car 24/7 i dont know what your talking about, plus its covered if you call the warrenty, my buddy has had his replaced twice, once for a red dot showing up and then for it not turning on but had it replaced for FREE

i dont think anything should go wrong justin

the screen works perfectly fine...no dead pixels or anything and I opted for the non motorized one so that I dont have to worry about a motor dying out on me. I dunno, hopefully this screen will last me a while I just didnt want to shell out $800 for an alpine or pioneer when I already have another screen/dvd player and pioneer headunit. Plus, im trying to save up for something real big

You, sir, are an inspiration to us all. I want a Tv tuner. Once again, klepto, you are a scholar and a gentleman.

katana: youre hilarious! thats going in my sig. You dont give yourself enough credit man, youre car is sickkk!

rmh3093: The sunvisor obviously doesnt close like it used to, its good enough, I say it closes like if you had one of those cd visor holder thingies on (if that makes any sense)

Nato: Yea, only one screen for now, If i were to get one for the driver side down the road, it would be purely for show and I just dont have that kind of money right now as Im trying to save up some.

thanks for all the comments
