please dont do it. i work in circuit city installing and i hate when people buy the crappy radios and bring it to install, that looks mad cheezy. i dont even like the jensen tv's we sell, half of them the motor gets jammed up. if your looking into a tv get something quality, just save up, a little more you will get better quality and reliable. we sell the panasonic which i say has the best picture for a flip out. the pioneer we have is good also. jvc is good also but i personally dont trust them. but clear view, i would stay away from, also pyle legacy and blitz ect.. are also garbage.

The CW-860 looks like a rebadged version of this unit: VT-DVD651 http://www.szviewtech.com/
I have seen this for sale on ebay, but never seen one sold.

The CW-870 looks like the innovatek lm7508 I seen on ebay all the time. I have yet to see a review or comment on the quality of this one.

That whole company site looks shady. I could have made it.

When going for car A/V, please stick with the motto, "You get what you pay for."

the video part I can agree with, but the audio part, not as true....it all depends on wether or not you know what to buy and how to operate the pieces in unison...

I just talked to a guy at Clearview and he said that PAS is suppose to have a test report of his double din units, particularly the cw-870 in next month issue. I don't know much about the mag, but I will look out for it.

Not yet. I ended up buying a unit like the cs-870 off of ebay. It is not bad, but not that great either. I was going to do a video/write-up on it for people to see and make their own judgement about buying one or not, but nobody responded. I can send you pictures of the unit in action if you like. P.M. me.
