That looks nice too but I just need a little more entertainment while sitting in traffic. I heard that those in-dash dvd player has to be hooked up to the parking brake to prevent you watching it while driving. Is there a way to bypass it?

If you get an AVIC N1, you can just ground out the "e-brake" wire and it'll work. They disabled this on the N2.

I see. What Hardware I should use to install a double din dvd player into EG Civic Audio Console? Should I use Metra kit that is for a Honda with double din (99-00 Civic, Accord...etc??)

Thanks

bump.. I could use some help on installing Double Din stereo into EG Optional Audio Console please. My big question is that whether I can use the general Metra Double Din kit for honda/Acura in the Audion Console. If it can mount securely, I assume I can mount the double din unit in it securely too. Please advice. Thanks
