This should be in a/v. But it's not worth it at all! I had one of these in my hands and found that there are so many other better options out there. First off, the dvd player is kind of restricted to dvds I think, but may play mp3s. After market units offer much more. The last time I checked the i-ves used an fm modulator to get the audio to the stereo for sounds and we all know how crappy the sound is comming from fm modulation. Next, that big drop down dvd player completely blocks your rear view mirrror view. I mean completely! Besides that the people sitting in the back seat will have neck cramps after about2 minutes of watching that screen since you're looking up and over to see it. Sit in your back seat and imagine that screen dropping down where they have it in that pic. I didn't like it compaired to all the other options on the market for a way better price.

I say 2 thumbs down compaired to other options and price.

I was gonna post in A/V but I dont know if that section is tsx only or open to whoever so I thought it'd be easier to find here.. Plus it has a part # so it is kind of a part...
Yeah, I know what your saying.. Looks nice but it kind of sucks...Especially the price.

For the same price you can probably get screens in both headrests, a dvd player and doms nav to vid conversion unit for you nav screen.

well then it begs the question:
why didn't you get the Navi since you seem to have the means moneywise ?
the aftermarket video stuff + parts + install is going to run you at least pretty close to $2K.

I originally wanted a CGP 6sp with Navi but I had returned my IS300 lease that expired 1 month previous to getting my tsx so I was in need of a car really bad and the only CGP in south florida at the time was the one im driving so, I got it so I didnt have to depend on anyone anymore(I was going crazy already)......yeah , it kind of sucks since I really wanted a 6sp with navi but fuck it now Ill just have to be happy with what i got.
