Replace factory VCP with DVD player

I have a 2002 Expy EB with the video system and was wondering if anyone knows if I can replace the VCP with a upright DVD player? I haven't yet tried to take the VCP out to check the wiring but was curious if anyone has tried this or even heard of someone else doing this.

I can't possibly be the 1st Expy owner to come up with this idea.

You may have to install some other hardware. It's do-able though. Have you thought about running from the present system?

Yes. Thanks David. I plan on running with the factory screen. I haven't taken the VCP out to check if the outputs are similar. I assume they are.

This other hardware you mention...... what do you mean?

Wasn't sure what exactly you had. I used to use a portable dvd player. Now that I got my roof mount, I could still use my portable through the roof dvd. If you have other monitors, you could get about anything and use it.

Let me know how it works out.

When using a Playstation 2, what do you use for a power converter/cleaner?
