I made a terrible mistake. please help electronics people!
ok guys...I bought myself a 6.8 inch screen to mount right in the dash...a DVD player to mount in the trunk but has a remote eye for the front, and I have a big 4-channel amp in the trunk as well. here's the problem...I have no volume control. I can't believe I didn't think of this. I could have sworn I thought the DVD player came with it. What can I do???????????

i told you you needed more things besides just what you got
you need some kinda receiver to control the volume and where it goes to all the speakers...
look at spending another 500 bucks for a good one

Nothin is installed yet. First..I have to make sure it will all work. I'm getting stressed trying to figure this out.
Importtoys(Marcus) I think I need your help here. How come the monitor has volume control and how do I use it? What do I plug the RCA cords from the monitor into on that long S-VIdeo cord/adapter thing you sent me? If you could mail me back with instructions on how to hook that up that'd be great. And thanks again for the MAF adaptor.

Hey,
You should've let me know which one you were gonna use. The one we talked about is a true 'stand alone' and its smaller.
I dont think you'd want to use the volume on the TV screen. The signal would sound horrible coming through an amplified system. The control is for a speaker that is built into the monitor case about an inch big.
I'll pull up the monitor diagram and email it to you.
You're welcome....Intake soundin' good??

think i can help
i do all my electric work so i may be able to help you. got some questions thow
is the radio working you hear music?
does the tv have a built in speaker ?
you said the dvd was in the trunk, can you see the picture on the tv but can't get any sound or you cannot get anything at all.
it sounds like a simple fix, maybe an fm modulator or something a little more indepth.
let me know talk to ya soon
