Default Anybody tried a cheap DVD player?

My girlfriends brother wants to buy a single din DVD player head unit that folds out a TFT monitor for a3out £150-£200 off ebay.

Has any body got one of these.

not this but something like this

I know you get what you pay for but I thought I'll ask the question.

hiya,

not the same, but I've gone for a cheapo single din player and 2 cheapo screens, and it's just purrrrfic....

Don't be too worried by chepo ones, as they all seem much of a muchness untill you pay mega bucks for suppposed 'high end' gear...

ours is fine.

regards

sorry 4 the delay, but I got it from:

http://www.impex-audio.com

the player I have is badged up as the centurion 899. it's very good indeed and plays anything I've thrown at it so far, r1, r2 no issues.

the bundle deal with 2 screens is still on, but seems a little more expensive now... but still a great deal... £289 for the player and 2 screens. U get a remote control for the player, and a magic eye - so u can have the player in the boot (out of view) and controls it from inside the car.... I can send a couple of pics if u want.

send me a pm if u want piccies.

regards

Mikey
