ripspeed dvd player

im looking too buy a ripspeed dvd player for my 182 and was just wondring will the steering wheel controls and the clocks still work once its been installed?

think u can get seperate cables to ensure that they do work but think the wire is a bit on the pricey side.

Mate have you seen one of them in the flesh? the picture ql is gash :dead: .. maybe £3-500 cheaper than decent makes but its sure shows through, also looks very flimsy, cant comment on it being in a car but saw it in halfords, it was sat next to a pioneer one on the display section, the pioneer just showed it up 3 fold

i have one in my clio , every one slags them off i think they are ok i mean i got mine for 100 quid with discount from a mate who used to work there, play my ps2 through it and its good, you have to buy a extra wire to get your steering controls to work though i think there good for the money at £150 quid not worth over 200 baring in mind

steering controls dont work with ripspeed units

got a ripspeed my self. its only the 3'' screen but is quite cool. paid £100 from Halfords 1/2 price, steering controls dont work but not a problem as you couldnt do much with them anyway!!! also bought a ripspeed under seat sub which has just enough power to make the bass a bit better. wont make the number plate rattle though!! LOL...

i brought one of my mate when it was selling his car, it looked okay fitted and everything, but some d**k smashed my window and stole it !
3rd party insurance sure sux! now i have a JVC CD player, and i take the face plate off everytime i leave the car anywhere! now i have had an expensive alarm fitted, dont want my sub etc being stolen.

im not joining the bandwagon " my mate had one " but my mate also has one and tbh it looks s**t and flimsy .

 

[andy-cup]

i sell them and there s*hit lol

Ive got one and I cant fault it really. I dont use it to watch DVD's much because of the 3" screen lol but you can get a standalone screen for about £60 last time i saw them which is a decent size.

Only prob i have with it is the lack of steering controls as there is no adaptor to my knowledge to hook them up.

I use mine mainly for MP3 DVD's 4.7 gigs of mp3s on 1 disc means i dont have to leave a load of cds in my car the 3" screen comes in handy for finding tracks then (although writing is a bit small )
