Question box office dvd

hi,
just a quick question to the sexy people who have had the box office package fitted.
firstly, does the dvd ever skip or jump when you go over a pot hole or speed hump? i have a cooper so quite bouncy
second, are the screens likely to give my son square eyes so that he has to wear glasses when he is older?
third, will it shut up my baby boy when stuck in london traffic?
fourth, is it worth spending over £2000, your honest opinion?

i have the money in front of me, just cant decide

Try a search for DVD. Quite a few people on here have DVD systems, but not many (if any) went the MINI Box office route because of value for money reasons. I do honestly suggest you contact Mikey at www.newministuff.com for some advice, he'll be honest.

Yeh the box office thing is a tad expensive, What I did was buy a portable DVD player for £799.99 from amazon.co.uk cheaper than 2grand. Plus I think its 2grand per seat? although not sure. It was when I bought my mum the new Toyota Deleux each seat was an extra 2 grand.

I fit the same screens as the mini box office - to your headrests or I can supply them in new headrests so you can refit yours later.
Connected to;
single disc dvd/mp3 player or
10 disc dvd changer or
playstation or
tv tuner or
video or
Or a combination of the above

The sound can come through wireless headphones or the mini radio or both

Have more than one source & the screens can play independently e.g. 1 child plays playstation, whilst one watches dvd --- NO MORE ARGUMENTS

Check Bonnie Scotlands install here on Mini2, which I recently did.

Don't hesitate do get in touch with your requirements
Mike
