Has anyone installed a DVD players on the Crossfire?
I'm interested in getting an in-dash model.... Im partial to Kenwood, but Im concerned that it's not going to blend in with the existing dash...

I was looking at this:

Ideas?

 

Dom,

That is one of the few units that even remotely go with the silver trim interior.

Check out:

Pioneers AVH-P6600DVD
Pioneers AVH-P7500DVD
or
Pioneers AVIC-N2

Most of the DVD flip screens are Grey or Black.

Good luck,
David

 

I have that same kenwood touchscreen dvd/navigation unit, mine is the kvt 815 version which looks the same but has a small display on the front to see info when the monitor is down. This unit looks flawless on the crossfire. I would recommend it to anyone. I love the performance and the touchscreen navigation is absolutely amazing, kills the alpine or pioneer units and looks way better in the crossfire. I would venture to say it looks stock, until that monitor rolls out and then its all ooohs and ahhhs. I will provide some picks.

 

The keenwood pictured in original link is of a KVT-715. The current model should be KVT-915.

Spiitz: as for your comment that your KVT-815 "kills alpine or pioneer". Thats a pretty harsh statment. The Kenwood is a good unit but in picture quility Alpine beats them all with it +1 million pixels.

As for looks..... going into the crossfire it probably does look the best w/ the dash.

some alpine screens may have better picture quality, I did not mean to refer to that. The kenwood STOMPS the alpine because of the touchscreen functionality of the navigation. No other navigation without this ability will compare, no matter what picture quality it provides. Alpine will have to copy this function in order to stay in the market. I think it is hands down one of the best touchscreen navigation system.(with the navigation unit included of course) The ability to navigate your navigation with touchscreen only, is an industry leading technology. Alpine will catch up with their newer models of touchscreen navigation. In my opinion Alpine will never catch up at this rate when it comes to visual appeal. There products all look bland and out of place in a flashy dash like ours. Also, you can never be too harsh, opinions are meant to be really subjective because they reflect feelings.

 

I have included the photos in my gallery of the Kenwood kvt-815. the box in the trunk houses the reciever unit, navigation drive, and 10g HD.
