In Dash DVD's
#1
So I wanted to pick up an In Dash DVD real bad (Alpine IVA-310) and I was told that they can't be played when the car is on UNLESS it's in park, parking brake is on, and your foot is on the brake... is this for real? When your car is on you can only play it if your foot is on the brake?? I would figure that'd get real annoying..
Also, what's a better deck, the IVA-D310 or the IVA-D360 ?

I believe it can be by-passed using a special harness or something...check with an Alpine dealer, and I think it's illegal to have it playing while driving in some areas. I just hope you're not planning on driving and watching dvds!

Yes that is true,when the car is in motion you can only listen to music etc.
Its a safety issue not to drive with it on
But wink,wink you buy one of these and your probs are fixed.

I havent seen the IVA-D360 yet but the 310 is pretty nice.

The PAC TR-7 will bypass this.
