Any Thoughts on Current TV's LCD/Plasma?

Take a look at the new Sony 3d. Sony use active glasses so although these cost a little more per pair the picture is stunning. You also get Internet tv. I read that Sony are going to be bringing android to their tv's very soon so expect to see an app store for your tv.

Passenger seat electrics do not work

Ordered a workshop repair manual from eBay and still finding it hard to find out where all the relays and fuses and connectors of the seat go. Would love a visual example manual. Anyone know where I can get one Haynes don't seem to make one.

Cheers.

Any Thoughts on Current TV's LCD/Plasma?

Here are a few points to think about 3D capable. These are already here but will be coming down in price post Xmas 1080p known as full hd. If you put 2 50" screens next to each other one 720 and one 1080 you will notice the difference but only if the film was recorded at a high enough resolutio...

Anyone know where I can get some headrests with hollow risers that will fit a 7" screen. They have arrived and are too large for the headrest, also risers are solid.

Very frustrated.

Passenger seat electrics do not work

Hope this is the right place to ask. My passenger seat electrics do not work they were like that when I got the car a few weeks back. Any ideas what it could be.  I tested the fuse and jiggled the wires under the seat but no dice. Any idea how I would fault test. 

Cheers

Hello from North London

Thanks Sanj,

Is there any way to have it play using full dsp stereo when in av mode on front screen.

Is there a book or manual you recommend.

Cheers,

Garry

Hello from North London

Hi Sanj, I have all the bits you listed, thanks that was very helpful (some here others in transit) and know where the power is coming from. I was looking for advice on setting up the sound (i have dsp) and the dash tv via av. Just a bit nervous messing with the wires and running cables. :) Cheers.
