Mainly after feedback from FHRX but any other with previous knowledge with this is much appreciated. Thats not including people who are guessing what would/could happen?

As you may know ive just brought a triton with airbags. i think alot of the time im going to be riding around pretty low. living in sydney the roads aint the best and a mate with a lancer that sits resonibly low his tv has ***** up due to all the bouncying, and the occasional hit when changin gears. i was wondering is the same would happen to me if i put a tv and dvd in the truck? I dont want ot be wasting my own $ and time putting one in if is gonna *** up.

EDIT: I gonna re-trim the whole interior (single cab). I could move the guages

Had my tv for a year now and know others who've got lowered cars with tv's and yet to hear of that problem. When i went sydney i found the roads to be fairly similar to melbournes in some areas. I think you should give it a go. Doubt you'll have a problem so long as you go for a decent quality unit.

Yeah i know..

Last i checked we were in Australia.. heheh :)

A mini truck is defined as a F150 or Dodge. Not a work ute.. but thats besides the point.

Your car shouldnt have a problem.

I guess 'truck' it the latest term used here.
