Looking for info on screen and dvd in dash

I am looking for more information on what to purchase and how to install it. I want an LCD screen where my double DIN space is and a DVD player in the single din space below. I'm not too sure what options are out there. Crutchfield has virtually nothing. I am looking for a DVD player that has one or 2 aux input(s) so I can plug my laptop or a ps2 or a TV tuner into it if I ever decided to. I want the dvd receiver to have an internal amp so i can replace my stock speakers and run them off the dvd receiver as well.
thanks!

Oh yeah.

I know this is really unessential, but It would be awesome if there were SOME sort of graphics displayed when an Audio cd was in use. a vizualizer to the music or even just lame graphics that don't goto the music...some sort of video output while an audio cd is playing.

if anyone knows of HU's that can do this let me know, thanks!

I've been looking for this for a while. There are no single din dvd players that display onscreen graphics.(correct me if I'm wrong) Otherwise you are limited to Pioneer dvh-p7000, Panasonic cq-dvr592u, Alpine DVA 7996, and a bunch of cheap ones from pyle/lanzar that dont provide enough features. I was set on the pioneer untill I realised it has no MP3 capability. Then decided to go with the panasonic so i can use my sirius receiver. Unfortunately the dvd player doesnt support sirius directly. So now I'm thibking of just buying a panasonic headunit, so I can get rid of the sirius control, and putting a dvd player in the glove compartment or something.
