the tv and the install cost less than $400 with a hook up. like i said admax it cost less than puting airbags. as for inspection it only takes two screws to take it out so it wont be a problem.

Fake *** ludacris, ludacris has that in his caddy on that mtv special. Anyway that has to be illegal since you removed your airbags and its clearly visible to the driver. But it looks hot so I aint hating.

Who gives a F*** what "Ludacris" has in his car. I think its awesome and I've never seen that before, anyone who doesn't have millions of dollars that is. But I can imagine it being the biggest distration for a driver......just wait, eventually it will come customary and then you have to worry about those soccer moms on the cell phone AND watching tv. the world as we know it will come to an end.....

...yep, he'll be different and stay different if he rear-ends a stopped bus at 30mph cuz he was busy watching Friends. Of course, he'll be rich once (or if) he gets out of the hospital, cuz he'll be able to sue the a** off the guys who sold it and installed it.

God bless America - where you can get someone else to pay for your stupidity.

I don't know about the laws in Texas, but where I live, it's illegal to have any type of video screen ahead of the back of the driver's seat.

I hope that he gets "lucky" and a cop stops him and has the car impounded until he takes the LCD out of his steering wheel.

It looks to me like you are more concerned with watching TV than having your life saved by an airbag in a front end collision. Priorities mixed up.

Shouldn't the driver be watching the road, and not a TV?

Why the hell would you waste money for something you can not even use? Are you gonna sit in your car & watch DVD's. That is why I have a TV & DVD player in the house, so I actually watch them.

Hey, I'm not knockin' it, but STUPID!!

Although it looks good, nice job.

Did you ever consider putting that thing in the sun-shade visor up on the top?? Can it fit there? But, I guess you'd have to be concerned about cops pulling you over if it was up there, a little bit easier to hid in the steering wheel.

Man your car looks great. I like the fact that you did something not alot of peolple have done like throw on 20" Rims and the T.V. in the wheel and the paint job is mint. I give you props for stepping out of the mold and trying to be unique. That is the way i think when it comes to doing something on the ride. If you get a chance take a look at my ride, i am going to invest in a alpine DVD/Navigation/Etc Etc system in about a month. Once again thats a hot ride.

Thanks. My Friend did everything for one price including shaving the whole car, painting it BMW silver, and molding on the kit. So i can't really tell you how much the handles alone would be. Plus my other friend installed the actuators so i can open the door with my remote.

Maybe I'm the only one, but his is the stupidest $hit I've seen here. It doesn't matter though, if you like it, I'm happy for u. Btw, the rest of your car is nice, especially the rims.
