Default LCD Screens, Advice?

I need a LCD screen, I have DVD player (not in the head unit) to play Mp3's on, (and DVD's) but I need a screen to shuffle through all of the folders and tracks. The screen shouldn't be too big, I'm thinking that it will need to be removable, So the wires are connected through a connector, and the screen can be taken off of the dash when I don't need it. Just a couple questions.

I don't need a top of the line screen, probably something around $100
Could It be attached by velcro?
What is the average size?
Does it need a 12 volt + and a ground?
Does it need a remote wire or is there an on and off switch?
Can it take a normal Video RCA?
Last, what kind should I buy?

i have a cheap little 5.6" legacy screen from ebay. i don't even have it hooked up in my car anymore, my friend gave it to me. it has a little plug that kinda looks like an S-video plug. and the wire splits there is a ground wire, a 12 volt power, and two rcas: an audio in( since it has built in speakers) and a video input. i just wired it to the 12 volt power wire for my headunit and grounded it to the ground wire to my headunit. it worked fine. i had an N64 hooked up to it.
mine had a bracket to mount it but you could use some velcro.
i would just buy a cheap one off ebay if what you say is all you need out of it.

I can get you a brand new 7" by Micro for about $150. It's a pretty nice looking monitor for the price. Hit me up.
