new in-dash dvd problems

[Guy withda bowtie]

hey i was wondering if anyone knew how to bypass the parking break wire so i can watch dvds other then when my parking break is engaged.

If you have a movie playing while your driving, and a cop catches you...they can definitely pull you over.

So besides being probably a little bit illegal, I'd say find out how the computer senses the parking brake is engaged (a wire, a switch, electric connection, etc.) , and then trick it into believing the brake is on all the time...
I'm not sure how yours works exactly, so this is the best advise I can give. Hope I could help

I would imagine that varies greatly from city to city.....

State law here says no tv's in drivers view. This includes any aftermarket or factory "in dash" dvd players you might have going when the vehicle is in motion on a public way. I would imagine most, if not all, states have this law in the books.
