I gatta question I am considering putting a X-Box in my Z. I tend to take long trips from sac to fresno all the time. I love playing the X-Box and my girl loves driving my car. So I see its a win win situation. I just want to know the size screen I could fit in my center console.

<span style="color:darkblue">I think most screens that would drop in will be either 6.5" or 7"</span>

I agree with Dirn, 6.5" should be fine.

Just be careful. There's a case in Alaska right now about a guy who installed something like that (he was watching a DVD) and veered into the other lane killing someone. They say it could be premeditated since he disable the safety switch for bypassing the ignition.

Not that I want to rain on your parade or anything, but I have a feeling your GF would get distracted.

The safety switch for bypassing the ignition?

 

[smoothz]

It was late, I was tired...

I meant to say that the mfg has some kind of failsafe 'switch' that supposedly turns off the device when you turn on the engine. A lot of people get around this problem fairly easily.

Oh, gotcha. Makes sense. You shouldn't be watching a movie while driving anyway

Well in most cases...i would say its kinda a waste of money to do sumthin like that..but i think ur case is one of the only ones where it actually is a good idea. I mean if ur girl likes to drive then u may as well find sumthin to do in the passenger seat...

Altho....I prefer to drive on long trips..cuz then my girl can find "interesting" ways to entertain us both
