by the way ive been seeing it on the forums.. anything that has a flip out screen (unless custom frabricated) will not let you close your cover. however, if you going to buy a dual brand player, i say save up and buy a Pioneer Z1 or D2, or go with alpine or eclipse. im not too famliar with alpine or eclipses line up thus i cant give any specific models. just the thing is, you always get what you pay for, and if you wanna get something like that for your car do it right. :D hope this helps.

i have the iva-w200 as well, i just drilled new holes in the brackets about a centimeter back to get the door to close over it perfectly and not hit buttons when opening the cover...
btw.. i wouldn't go dual haha

You don't have to drill holes for the IVA-W200, I used the factory mounting brackets, and mounted the unit far back. The door closes perfectly fine.
I'll post some pics later this week.
Oh, by the way, I would recommend you save up for a good DVD unit, I don't recommend the Dual.

Steal a quality unit (not recommended)
Become an authorized dealer/distributor for a brand name company (Pioneer, Alpine, Eclipse....), and get one for yourself (you will still have to pay taxes, etc... but it's an option.
Get a partial/full sponsorship from a dealer/company
Get a used/refurbished good unit from ebay/craigslist.
Other than that, you will be happy with your Dual for about 1 month. I don't know where you heard it has "great quality", but I disagree with that.
I know it's hard to save up $1,000 for an in-dash DVD player, but I don't think you'll be happy when your Dual (or Jensen) unit breaks down/causes problems.
Think about this... I have had countless (sooooo many... many many many many - you get the idea) customers come to me hating their cigarette lighter FM modulator for their ipod. It doesn't cost that much for that FM modulator, nobody likes using them. My customers always upgrade to an aux unit or better. But they spent more money overall to have their ipod play in their car, and went through too many headaches.

thanks. i know i have little knowledge when it comes to in dash DVD player, so maybe ill re consider and save up some more and buy something that had brand name. any suggestion on a great dvd player that flips out ? nothing top quality, just something that last long. i either want a motorized flip player or a in dash oe that fit perfectly in the radio compartment..
