coolwater Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 Bestbuy.com now has this <Kenwood Navigation with GPS> for $1,500 and you also need to buy Kenwood Touch Screen which is not listed. I assume the screen will cost another $500 and that will make the total price around $2,000 just for Navigation. In Japan, this kind of in-dash Navigation/DVD/TV system is very popular--don't know if in-dash DVD and TV are legal or not. I don't know if you want to watch TV, a TV tuner needs to be installed and the cost will be that much higher, I think. I have seen some great looking pictures of Kenwood, Pioneer, Clarion in-dash DVD/TV/NAV systems on Japanese Lexus sites Anyway, does anyone have seen them installed in US? In-dash DVD or TV is still illegal, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingkong5 Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 The motor vehicle laws would vary from state to state, but I believe that in most states it is illegal to run in-dash dvd or tv. I think this is why a lot of them have the lock-out function when the parking brake is not on. This is only a problem if you get caught. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolwater Posted July 21, 2004 Author Share Posted July 21, 2004 Well, people can get away with anything these days and I'm sure there are ways to get away even if you're caught. ;) I'm not interested in in-dash DVD nor TV. I'm only interested in cool looking in-dash navigator. The 7" widescreen LCD would look really cool, but $2,000+installation easily makes it not worth the money, at least for me.
