TV in motion upgrade anyone done it????

Post by deckie77 » Mon Feb 28, 2011 3:14 pm

Hello all,
Just joined up to the site, I bought my 2004 3.0d Sport in December, and i'm looking at doing a few things to it in the coming months.
I have the analogue TV set up in my motor, and found this while trawling the net, i am heading down the Edinburgh area for 4 days in April & would be a opportunity to get it fitted, i've mailed the company but no reply yet as i asked about a price for them fitting aswell, but before i commit i was wandering if anyone has used them/bought the retrofit kit #1 and their thoughts on it.

Any response appreciated.
Deckie.

Didn't have it done but most reports state that when in motion the picture is not good. Your choice but worth doing a search to see what the consensus is from forum members.

Had it done via scanner software and agree the reception isn't great, but if you can connect an ipod you can the watch movies through it great if you've got kids!

Thanks for the reply's, It really isn't a necessity to have TV in the car, but if it was to work well i would have it - just because i could, another day & still no word from them so moving freeview upgrade to the bottom of the list :thumbsdown:
