today i saw that one of my friends had his guages displayed on his in-dash dvd player. i asked him how he did it, but he refused to share that info with me. does anyone here know how to do it and/or what i need to do it?

oh ok, so theres no way to install that feature? it sure would make it cheaper for me instead of buying the guages.

Ive never heard of any indash dvd systems having a setting for reading gauges. The only one I know of is by AIM industries.

I know the Pioneer models can show:

Voltage, Clock, Direction, Slope, Acceleration, Side Acceleration, Angular Velocity

lol, im pretty sure it wasnt a dvd, cuz when he rev'd it up it showed on the guages same with the voltage and when he turned it off.

and yeah, he didnt want to share his secret. lol.
