portable dvd
Hi all. im thinking of getting a portable dvd player in my car. i dont need anything fancy as i will not be watching it . i need something that i can just remove because cars in my area have been broken into. just something to entertain the other ppl in my car. i was thinking something along the lines of these 3. i live in toronto, canada.

i have a few questions....i read the other threads but i still dont understand how you get the audio hooked up to the car speakers. i figure with the built in speakers of the dvd units, itll be very quiet or not clear. any help is greatly appreciated.

easiest way to do it, connect with a 3.5mm headphone to rca wire, plug the headphone end into the dvd player, and the rca ends into the usa spec. the usa spec plugs into the back of your factory HU

I have the same unit that Radio Shack sells.....but the brand name is Kawasaki and I got it at Target.

Primarily used to entertain the kids, and it has worked well so far.

I like the design of the one you have listed from Walmart. Nice to have the player built into one of the headrests.

Is there any AUX input at the back of the head unit? I do not have any AUX buttons on my front panel, so I'm not sure if Toyota has an AUX input there.
