Theres a wire that is connected to the handbrake (ebrake?) warning light, this is only earthed when the brake is applied - thus only allowing the screen to show moving images when the vehicle is stationary.
This wire just needs to be connected to a permanent earth to obtain moving images at all times. Im sure the owners maunal will say this is against the law or something like that, my Alpine literature did.

Yes its quite illegal I believe in every state. Driveby put it how it is, just gotta un-hook that wire, and re-ground it and poof, I wonder why tho you would get it "installed" when they do some shotee jobs and you couldent even get it the way you wanted?

i mean i havent gotten it intsalled yet but knowin my crazy self, i love to just unplug stuff and see what happens, so i might jus install it myself (just figured i could jus save time and jus have sum one else do it for once.

i think it would just be cheaper to install a separate monitor on the passenger dash and just get the dvd deck

isnt the n1 the unit that has the gyro thing for nav that when it senses movment it wont allow movies to be played and that cant be over ridden.

Don't watch DVDs while driving --- bad things can happen don't do it....really, not worth the risk.

Yeah, don't be driving in my city if your gonna be watchin some porn while driving

[Drocay]

i believe its the n2 and the d1 that have the gyro.

[dustin15brown]

are you planning on actually watching it yourself while driving? That is retarded

[afroman]

i watch mine all the time. its not that big of a deal. when ur on the road for 4-5 hours a movie really helps make the trip go faster.

I watch DVDs while driving all the time. Haven't hit anyone/anything yet.

[MaskedMan]

Yeah i used to watch movies in my car all the time and play ps2 while driving... may it rest in peace... haha jk, but lcd screens+convertibles=stolen

[CelicaZR]

I dont watch movies while I'm driving.
But I do have the music video thing goin

[snadman]

i got the pioneer 5700 and this is what i did...

hooked up the ebrake wire normally at first. then i took a normal switch...hooked one end to ground other end to that parking brake wire...with a diode to isolate away from the parking brake. this way u can show the cop it works the right way case he pulls u over...or u can flip switch and it works and the isolation makes it so the parking brake light doesn't come on. the n2 and d1 are different tho as they have the gyro...but there is a way to bypass it permanently...or u can hook into the reverse cam input

i have music video dvd's

people can watch, i can listen. its awesome

[Kamakaze]

yea im not that crazy to sit there and watch, but that someone else can enjoy my car as well

keep your eyes on the road. this isint 2fast2furious, paul walker!

I think the whole DVD player in a car period is a waste. Buy some home entertainment stuff, if you're in the car you should be in the car to drive. If you want to entertain guests in the car with stuff like that then get a bigger car to fit more people.

And seriously, if you're just going to watch it while driving I hope you get pulled over that's so dangerous.
