need input on dvd/cd player

Im looking to install one of those 7'' screens from redmax. What i need help finding is a cd/dvd player that would fit in my dash. I would like to have some aux inputs for subs later on. Anyone know of any advice for me?? The H.U. needs to be under $500 so come on guys, hit me back with a solution to this.

Why bother with the in-dash dvd player? Get a nice cd HU with AUX imputs and then just get a "in house" dvd/mp3/vcd player... stick this under your seat or in your trunk and you are set. You will save yourself some serious $ that way and if anything happens to your car (theft) you wont suffer too much.

I don't really see how you would save any money by getting a headunit and a seperate dvd player, especially if you can get the panasonic for $300 and while its probably not the best it works and the intall would be easier. If your going to get a real nice hu then you can definitely afford to spend the little extra that you would spend on a decent "in house" dvd player, and spring for the in dash dvd. Plus, they're not that expensive anymore if you find the right deal. The question is really which one to buy. If I had the money I would probably get the eclipse, but the panasonic is more in my budget.
