Maybe there is a YouTube video to show how to window tint. Tint can be purchased at most auto parts stores. As for the height I would rent...

    Sirius XM Freeviw for former subs 5/24-6/6

    I also got the mailer, I don't plan to listen to the free preview channels. I left Sirius last summer because the sound quality was so poor. I spent all the extra money to get all the professional install stuff, still made not difference. The only way I would go back would be if they offered HD...

    We all of the internet based Movie providers all go to a stream only.

    I emailed Blockbuster and asked them if they had plans to offer a stream only package. They replied with a not a this time, and don't have any information that they ever will. Doesn't seem to make sense that everyone will one day offer this as a option. If it wasn't for Netflix offering this...

    3DTV - Do you care?

    I myself have no interest in 3D, I have seen it . Its pretty cool. I would really like to see some channels come out in 1080P. I would much rather have a better quality picture. It seems since the 1080P sets came out the talk of high resolution channels faded. Lets work on better quality before...

    Needs some help Panasonic Rear Projection

    It can be done pretty easy. Well I took my set apart the past weekend and it was real easy. There wasn't any issues what so ever. It maybe took me a half hour to take it apart and an other half to put it back together. If you ever get into a bind and need to move your large rear projection it...

    Needs some help Panasonic Rear Projection

    Well I would have guessed some of you guys would have taken apart a rear projection HDTV. I made a couple calls to some service shops , they say it can be done. Most of the the upper stuff needs to come of in order to remove the protective screen. So I would have though at least someone would...

    I made a couple of calls regarding having my set calibrated. I found out that a lot of HDTV repair shops in my area have stop doing it. They claim Best Buy is the only one that will do it. The guys I talked to said that the new HDTV's are loaded with pre-sets that look almost as good. The...

It was very easy to set-up. The one thing I noticed right away this set is very sensitive going from HD channels to...

    Why rename TurboHD packages to Dish America?

    I loved the Turbo package until Until they stopped adding HD channels to this package I thought it was great. Why pay for all those SD channels you never watch. Don't you think there will be a day when they will need to offer an HD only and an SD only package in the future. There will always be...
