Some head units need a switch in order to bypass the brake.

#103682 Are you fuckin serious? The title is "watch movies while driving". It's not even something along the lines of allow your front passenger to watch movies while driving.

This topic needs to be deleted.

It's just a matter of time until some high profile case comes a long and in-dash DVD players are banned from cars altogether. This is what manufacturers are trying to avoid by putting the protection in place.

Stupid.

Oh btw, this wont work on any quality DVD player. Most brands require a sequence of pulling the ebrake on and letting it off. Some of the high end stuff have built in sensors to detect motion. There is almost a way to bypass this safety feature but it's never as simple as permanently grounding the ebrake input wire.

I got a Quality dvd player (Phillips-eonon) in my car. And i did the same trick as he did, qire the Ebrake wire to the positive side of your player, and the dvd player "thinks" the car is on the Ebrake.
So it is easy, not what you tell about sensors and stuff...

Hm that's strange seeing as how the e-brake is a negative.

Also strange that you would consider that unit "quality". Try Pioneer, Alpine, Eclipse.

#104141 I locked this before some dead kid's parents try to sue me because their son hit an 18 wheeler head on while watching Fast & Furious, after reading how to do so on this site. This IS America ... :roll:
