Panasonic CQ-VD6503U In-dash DVD receiver with 6-1/2" video screen

If you have a double-sized dash opening, Panasonic's CQ-VD6503U DVD player delivers top-notch video playback, extensive surround-sound processing, and lots of system-expansion options. The 6-1/2" video screen sits flush in your dash, sporting a clean look that blends well with any dash. Touchscreen controls and easy-to-follow menus let you whip through system commands, and you can even select DVD menu items directly by tapping on the screen, instead of having to use the remote.

Theater-quality sound
With this DVD player, you can set up a theater on wheels. It'll decode and play the 5.1 Dolby® Digital and DTS® soundtracks on your DVDs. Just hook up your front and rear speakers, plus a powered subwoofer and center speaker, and you'll enjoy hearing powerful surround effects right in your car. And if you prefer not to install extra speakers, kick in SRS® Circle Surround — it'll simulate surround effects for a thrilling sonic experience.

Expanding your system
Connect a backseat video screen and wireless headphones, and you can enjoy dual-zone mode while you're driving — listen to the radio up front, while the kids enjoy their videos in back. You can also connect another source, like a game system, to the audio/video input.

Add a Panasonic CY-EM100U Expansion Module, and you can integrate an array of Panasonic components. Hook up an XM and a SIRIUS satellite radio and you'll be able to enjoy both services. Connect a Panasonic Bluetooth® adapter to receive hands-free calls with your compatible cell phone.

You can also add Panasonic's high-speed iPod® adapter cable, then use the touchscreen controls to select songs, artists, and playlists, or randomize your music library. The iPod cable even recharges your iPod's battery.
