I'm not really sure what you're talking about. Your car's LCD has a USB port?

Does your LCD and whatever media player you want to use have an RCA connector? Sorry, your problem isn't that clear for me.

Not too sure about what you are wanting though. Are you sure it's not an HDMI connector? What model are you using? Need some basic info first.

hey if your faceplate in the car is compatible with ipods, thats your best bet, because you can use the usb cable conncetion that you use for your computer for it, if it is not compatible with ipods, but just generic usb flash drives or flash based mp3 players, then thats all your gonna be able to use... usb hdd compatibility ion those car radio things is spotty, due to the fact that you cant "intstall"drivers like a computer...

Hey topo, sorry for the late reply. I've looked at the gadget you've linked to, and from all appearances, you can connect USB devices to this LCD right? Can't you just hook up your external HDD and make the LCD play videos from it?
