anything besides dvd/ps2

I want to put a lcd monitor in my car but I dont want to put in a dvd player or any video games. I like the whole fast and furious graphs and equlizers thought they looked cool. What are my options?

My cousin has a vcr hooked up to his so his kids can watch movies.

well I couldn't think of anything else. No games, no dvd. What else is there?

those graphs and shit you see are based off the head units they use... plus being a movie some are also prolly put in durning editing... but yeah in order to get stuff like that you normaly need a indash tv deck or dvd deck.. then that outputs to your screen and walla you have your fancy lil display... you can buy indash a/v/cd recievers that dont have built in screens and just look like a CD player and they will display all that kewl stuff on your screen(s) wherever you choose to put them

Hey Chad... I know a girl who's selling her in-dash Kenwood CD/DVD/Screen deck. It's a single DIN unit and it retails for around 3,000 bucks. I think she will take $1,200 cash if you can come up with it. That is... if you want it. I don't remember the model number but I can find out. It is legit too... came out of her truck.

It's hella nice and I'd buy it if I wasn't in the hole that I'm in right now.

Ghettolegs, definitely get a model number.

the crazy lookin F&F shit can be done now with the AEM management system.. it monitors a bunch of crap but costs about 1000 bucks. save that money for boost!

yeah its the fuel management system that details the mixture and all that good stuff. you would need a laptop mounted in your car for that.

Forget anything that you see in the Fast and not so furious. So you dont want games or DVDs? well you can do a TV tuner as stated earlier, it would require you to mount a tuner and usually two seperate antennas on your rear window. I would advise however that your reception while driving will be marginal. Parked it works well. you can expect to pay between 300-400 for a tuner/antenna setup. This doesnt include a screen. If you want something that alot of Audiophiles do that is not only flashy but also functional I would say how about a rear view camera? Thats something that not alot of people have and can really help you out when parking or driving in traffic, etc. I am planning on doing one in my hatch and placing the camera in my rear hatch keyole. Accele makes a nice unit. I have done several installs where I have removed the customers rear view mirror and replaced it with an LCD. Pretty cool stuff when you can read the persons tag thats tailgating you.

If you want to do the whole thing where youre monitoring your engine stats and all that I say go for it but you better be building a 50K dollar car. If youre spending that kind of money on that, the rest of your car should be outstanding as well.
