I would have to say this AVIC-100 Audio/Video Auxiliary Input Adapter because it's a direct input over a switch Just my .02

Just get an RGB converter and call it a day. You can get one for $110.00.

Here you go. I did the same in my LS with an XBOX. Works like a charm for a fraction of what others want.

I have the AVELECTRONICS ones and the damn thing has started to take a crap on me. The picture just scrolls vertically. Need to get it checked it by them.

In my opinion, VAIS Tech always seemed to have the better product but their entire video device lineup has been "unavailable" for several months.

Between those two, I'd pick the VAIStech ...I have used both and the VAIStech was alot better in quality and ease of connection...plus it has RCA inputs rather than the FM modulated audio of the AVelectronics.

However, if you are planning on using a CarPC, then neither of these are good options since they are composite to RGBS...you'd need a VGA to RGBS for a brighter/sharper picture.

it might be old school by now, but i love my eclipse unit. plays cd's, mp3, dvd's, and navigation all in one double din unit. the install was a headache but the results were worth it.

however, that in-car PC sounds very tempting...
