Hello all! I have one question...

**devus1** · 11-29-2005, 02:04 PM

hello all, i am very new here, just finding the site today. But i am very excited as this is all so new to me and i love learnign and tinkering. I wish i would have seen this forum 3 days ago as i just purchased a Kenwood KVT-717DVD and all the goodies such as XM radio, T.V. tuner. I already had a 10 disc DVD changer and 10 disc CD changer in the Suburban. I wish I would have seen this site and used my $1500 dollars toward a new carputer. Unless there is anyway to hook a carputer up to my kenwood?? It does have 2 audio/video inputs and a touch screen, but i don't know that the screen would control the carputer?? If anyone has any experience with this, please share. Thank you

hey i have one question too. did you

at all?

i did try, but i don't know all the correct terminology to use. I tried Kenwood and got nothing relevant. If you want to give me a hint, i will be more than glad to use the search function again!

ok search for composite vs vga

ok, guess i just had to look for the composite thread. i found much info, looks like i'll be getting a seperate screen for my carputer!! you need a degree in engineering just to understand it. maybe i'll install some monitors in my sunvisor? thanks a lot eskalad. sorry for not finding it in the search.

Believe it or not, it can be done. But are you willing to hack your BRAND NEW HU?

How to do it

I saw that thread. at first I thought it was just for that model, but my head unit has the same inputs. unfortunatly I am not willing to hack up my head unit. if there was a way to just plug and play I would, I don't want to risk a brand new unit. i'll just fiberglass a 7 inch touch screen under my headunit and have 2!! whoo whoo
