Watching DVD's with car moving!
Are there stock restrictions on watching DVD's while car is in gear?
If so...how do i get around this problem?
Thanks!

There is a modification that can be done that allows you to watch Video while the car is In Motion (VIM). The dealer told me they 'know a guy' who can do the mods for $200, but you have to sign a waiver so when you wreck doing 90 watching p0rn you can't sue them.
There's a vid on you tube that shows a new C Class w/ VIM.

I don't get this obsession with video in motion..aren't there enough dangerous distractions on the road now without trying this silly activity?

Video in motion would be good for passengers, ie my daughter in the back seat. For those who have kids, dvd player in the car is the best.
Yes, its nuts for the driver to watch dvds while driving.
I would still get it if available and not to expensive to tweak, for my daughters sake.

there are lots of over the headrest dvd players, and small portable ones that your daughter could use to enjoy movies while you are driving..

I just took my car to a car stereo place to get my subs put in and they told me there is nothing they can do to make the dvd player work while moving. Does anyone know a place in OC that could do this?

The place that did the bypass for my S-Class also does them for the new C class. Not sure if theres anyone in your area, though.

^I’m not A.D.D. I can have something flashy next to me and not have to stare at it... might be hard for you but some of us don’t have a mental disability. Or maybe it’s just that you’re so feeble minded that if a T.V. is on you have to stare at it to appreciate what is on it? No reason for you to bash on people… You might have been picked on as a kid or something but that doesn’t justify remarks like that.

Some of us on this board are a little bit more mature to think we need to watch music videos while driving. Seeing as you're only 18, you're still a minor. I hope your insurance is through the roof (you deserve it). This is the reason 25 is the threshold for insurance companies.

^Now did I ever say I was going to 'watch' the videos? No, DVD’s have a higher quality of sound then cd's... Also maybe people sitting in the passenger seat would enjoy some visual entertainment on those long drives to downtown? Who’s more mature, the 18 year old or the older guy bashing on the 18 year old because he expressed his opinion; also just tried making a joke about 1up' other C-class drivers? Don’t question my integrity; I did nothing to you so why are you going around picking fights and trying to 'gather' information about me? You live in Hawaii, and own 2 high end benz; stop making your life stressful and go to the beach and get the stick out your ***.

Wow... thats some useless info. that i already knew... My father, My mother, and I had VIM in all of our cars/trucks... None of us have ever had any problem. Why does my life and what I want in MY car concern you?
