VCR?! What is this 1980? :nono: I'm not trying to be an *** here, but don't waste your time; get a DVD head unit. Some cheaper units are down to the $300 area. You save your trunk space, you get digital quality picture and sound, and for *** sakes you don't have to carry around those enormous VHS tapes.

I will second CaysE, get a DVD. But you might want to try the storage area on the drivers side. It might not fit there but the new mobile DVDs will.

VCR??

Well i had mine mounted in my car for 1 week......ONLY to pass time till my Dreamcast was installed.....

Here is where i mounted it.......then again trunk space wasn't an issue to me......

I WOULD HIGHLY SUGGEST THE PLAYSTATION 2 or DVD player route...

VCR's suck @ss

LOL... christ, you got a lot of subs back there. I bet the NOS is to keep you up to stock speed with all the extra weight in the car. :sillylol:

You need to burn your own VCD disc.....

Look on google for the following search:

"Dreamcast VCD"
"Dreamcast Boot Disc"
