Which would you guys recommend? Does the TV always switch off when you start moving?

 

The TV only switches on when the lead that's supposed to be connected to the handbrake is grounded...

It would be illegal (apparently) if fitted otherwise. So you couldn't, for instance, have a switch in there that overrode the handbrake ops, because that could potentially be dangerous.

 

The Alpine system is excellent.

There are quite a few on the market and they're all good in there own way.
Arrange some demo's and select the one that you like best and has the options you require.

As Chiark says, the tv tuner has a wire which is to be connected to the handbrake switch. When the handbrake is not applied the tv tuner is switched off.

 

Does that mean the telly comes on in the middle of a handbrake turn?

 

Guess so.
