Our very best price is the price displayed on our website.
In Car DVD pride ourselves on bringing you quality cost effective entertainment solutions, however, there will always be someone selling a product cheaper elsewhere, in some cases usually from their bedroom!
If you want to purchase purely on price, then please feel free to shop with them as we won’t ever match their price because we offer a high level of support before and after you purchase your product unlike they do. We also have direct relationships with all our manufacturers.
All TV screens are measured diagonally e.g. from the bottom left corner to the top right corner. This applies to all LCD screens - even your 28 inch widescreen at home.
With LCD TV screens the size given is usually the 'panel' size which differs from viewable area, as the panel will have a surround for neatness and safety. For example an 8" LCD screen will not have a viewable diagonal size of exactly 8 inches, but it will be very close to that. Hence all screen sizes given are approximate.
Yes all of our products are genuine branded products.
There is at least a 12 month warranty on all of our products with Clarion and Nextbase offering a 24 month warranty for most of their products. Full details of extended 24 month warranties are highlighted in the individual product specification.

A portable system is the fastest and most popular method for getting a DVD/TV or gaming system in your vehicle. Portable means exactly that - portable.
You can simply plug the system into your vehicle's cigarette lighter and you are up and running. This means you can take it on holiday or swap it between vehicles quickly and easily and when you leave the vehicle you can unplug and take it with you – great for security
Portable systems usually come in a custom bag with a screen and headphones. But additional padded cases are available to purchase to protect your system and hold all the accessories in one place.
All portable systems can be used with 240v adaptors which makes them ideal for use at home as well.
Some systems are made for permanent installation or come included with a navigation system which needs to be installed permanently.
Permanent installation offers wider scope for a ‘cinema experience’, for example sound can be hooked up to the vehicles existing audio system and screen options are much wider.
Additional screens can be permanently fixed into headrests or sun visors and retrimmed to the vehicle's original specification.
Yes, an in-car TV is exactly that, however TV signals are such that they are only really of use when stationery, but a great picture can be expected when parked up. DVD and games work 100% when on the move.
To complete with legislation, fixed digital tv systems are designed to only play sound when the vehicle is in motion.
