Talking roof mounted dvd player quandry

Hey Guys,

Has anybody heard or experienced any dramas with buying roof mounted dvd players from ebay from say hong kong or even the USA?

I know that you have to be weary with buying cd tuners etc from OS... anybody have any ideas?

Cheers!

I've bought 3 roof mounted screens from ebay - 2 from HK, one from China. No problems, but just make sure you know what you are looking for. Most of the cheaper ones don't have sound or IR headphone control. Just make sure you get one with whatever features you are looking for - they are around 1/2 to 1/3 the price you can get them for here.

And don't forget you won't get a proper warranty with that (ie. Australian distributors/dealers won't accept them)...
