Indash Dvd Player With Gps From Ebay

[sumguy]

Im interested in buying a indash 7" dvd player for my car with gps from USA ebay. I know that they come with USA maps, anyone know if its possible to load Australian maps on it or know where to get them from? What are those maps called anyone know? Does the map load from the cd slot or from the memory somehow? how does it work, any help appreciated.

best to post the details of the unit... have u tried googling the model and checking the manufactures website

Will be happy with something like this model http://cgi.ebay.com/KENWOOD-PNAV-617-MULTI...1QQcmdZViewItem , well pretty much any good brand

If you look carefully on some of them, they say not for australia.

It's only a matter of time.

I've decided that that's when i'm gonna go for the screens.

With the influx of window mounted units, it's only a matter of time before the built in ones in the screens become common

no maps for that one. they have a local unit that plugs into the local screen that does support it though

ebay=bad - especially if yo make a mistake.

save your money and buy a proper one. you will be tossing one of those out within 3 months of buying it.

I second that. Even the straight DVD players (rather than combined screen and players) are crap. I actually found that the straight "manual" (ie not motorised) single din screens are OK though. Keep it simple!

I baught a JVC DVD head unit and had an "ebay" LCD and it was all good! Sold the car since so cant take any pics sorry! With the price of JVC DVD head units now you would be crazy to buy a dodgy player especially. The brand name screens are still very expensive though.

thats what i did

jvc dvd unit with divx and usb

usb for mp3's, dvd for divx... clarion screen with tv... sorted..

have an r34 with built in antennas as it came with sat nav originally..

it all worked out nicely
