    Sun Visor TFT Screens

    What do people think about these ?

    What would you need to get a picture up on one?

    Hi Sid,

    Sorry but it is illegal to have a television or video entertainment which can be viewed by the driver of a motor vehicle. If it can be seen fron the driving seat then it must have a cut out when the car is in movement or when the enghine is running.

    They look good, the main problem is that they are for the drivers side, It would have been ok for the country they originally came from as it would have been on the passenger side.

    The connection might be a composite input ( i.e. computer TTL input) I don't think there is any inteligence i.e. USB connection.

    You would need a gameboy, DVD player, TV receiver or similar to drive it.

    Any way driving an S2 is more than enough fun!

      You get a pair of them, so LHD / RHD is not an issue.

      Would be quite handy for a DVD based Sat Nav system if the directions were right in front of your eyes. No need to look down at the centre console.

      It was just a thought. I didn't really plan on buying them - I can't even get radio reception in my car, let alone TV!

        The reason that you would need a sat nav system with the visors down is you couldn't see the road signs!

        Radio reception is easy, screw a sat dish to the roof!

        There seems to be a lot of comments about poor radio reception in coupes.

        Mine is not good but I have got a dodgy cable and connecter.

          the coupes have a reputation for burning the aerial amp out which is in the base of the bee sting aerial bit. Not expensive to replace though
