Exclamation OEM DVD player

I was thinking of adding the OEM DVD player to my 03 EB X but noticed while looking at some pics on eBay that the ones that have it DON'T have the middle A/C vent in the ceiling like mine does. So I guess I should scratch the idea?

I had noticed looking at my ceiling that it would probably be a tight fit between the rear of the sunroof and that middle vent - never thought that those equipped with the DVD from the factory wouldn't have that vent at all.

the dvd player was not a option if you had the sunroof.

Here's an 03 with sunroof and DVD.

Well, the link doesn't work for some reason, but you can go to ebay and search for "4561486934"

MAn, that DVD player is HUGE! I wouldn't even bother if that's what you are considering installing. Just get a couple of moniters installed in the headrests and be done with it.

Shaggy,

When you replaced the OEM DVD unit, was it just power and aux lines into the head unit? Was everything else self contained? So, any after market unit could fit up there?

I did not replace it. I had a shop do it. But I am pretty sure all they did was run the RCA cables from the new unit to my new head unit.
