hey
well my old man what to put a screen in his tr magna
he has a jvc single din dvd player with it own screen and want to get a roof mount drop down screen but i am trying to get him to just go for a set of screens in the head rests

what are the pro's and con's with a drop down screen and head rest screens?

Well the drop down screen might block his version when looking in the rear view mirror lol Plus it will look like a wart on the roof lining. I go with the head rest screen :)

ok but what if the drop was mount to the roof surport

So is the screen going in the middle about where interiour light is? Plus are you going flip down the screen while driving? Because it won't block the view if the screen is folded up but will if folded down. So it depends what the screen is doing and what it postion is while driving.

yes it will be going in the middle in replace of the light,

Ok as long you don't use the screen while driving should be fine :)

Ok as long you don't use the screen while driving should be fine :)

so basicly a drop down screen will be uselless
my thought would be if it was being used and the man in blue see it they would fine you for it

I dont thinks theres any laws against it, they come 'standard' with some cars and i dont think its against the law to block the rear view mirror.

sorry mods delete

yes like ve's but they are only a 7" screen

The only laws relating to DVD screens that I can think of off the top of my head is that no DVD movies etc can be viewed while the car is moving from the front of the car (ie within the driver's vision). If it's behind the driver you shouldn't have a drama.

Legally speaking, I imagine you could block the rear vision mirror - I mean, most trucks and semis will have something permanently blocking the rear vision mirror. Practically speaking though, I wouldn't recommend blocking it - I know I use mine often :P

For the rear vision issue alone, I'd be going for headrest mounts.
