Flip Out/Up DVD

Hi guys,

I am looking to add a flip out/up dvd player to the HHR. I can seem to find any pics of anyone that has one already and was hoping that maybe someone could help me out with a few pics.

Any suggestions on a head unit? Ideally one that has integrated XM Radio and Blue Tooth capability. GPS is a bonus but no a deal breaker.

Thanks!

Check my gallery. I have a Pioneer 7" DVD AVH4200 but several of us have it here. It's HD and XM capable, has bluetooth and best of all is a perfect fit.

Yes, but its not legal. If I believe you just ground it to your battery wire. I can remember which wires are all there. I have the JVC and I dont have to have the car in park to search for nav or have a dvd player, maybe it was the park wire I grounded to the ground wire. I don't remember, since its been a year. This is the unit I have JVC KW-NT50HDT.

It's the ebrake that it needs to be grounded to. I had a shop do my full install but that's how my installer did it.
