Well how about in the trunk area. There's tons of room back there for it.

actually you very well can mount it under the seat. ive got my play station 2 under my seat and it fits perfect.
you could also consider you glove box this will require a decent amount of custom modification but ive seen it done

My suggestion would be where the factory changer is. I personally don't care for disc changers. I prefer the front loaders because I change music too much, so it was a no brainer.

Here are pics

That also depends on the size of the d.v.d. Mine fit perfect with minimal modding to the glovebox

You can put a t.v. pretty mich any where you can imagine. I think the most popular are in the sunvisors. I have posted a few pics...one being very extreme. They also make rearview mirrors with a monitor in it. As for the d.v.d. player mounted in the rear seat, The guys car has a totally redone trunk enclesure so I am not sure about the price, but I can guarantee that the butt is hanging out into the trunk. Depending on how far your money streches...you can do anything.

Lastly, the only reason why I got a stand alone d.v.d. unit instead of the cd/d.v.d. was so I could watch movies and still be able to play my music. I am not sure if the all in one units can do this. I hope these pics help



The point I was trying to make with this pic is that the sky is the limit....and yes, this is a second gen GS


Underneath the nav....


This is an a SC...but you get the idea....



Visors..



In dash above glovebox...
