Well I was looking for an interesting case to put the components in. I was in my girlfriends garage and she had some old DVD players that didn't work anymore. One stood out from the rest. It has a unique design and it had a radio in it too. I took it apart and as I suspected the radio and DVD player were separate modules.
I took out the DVD module and will be using it's ribbon cable and existing power supply. It has 12 volts and 5 volts. There is an LED that lights up the lid but it only comes on when the DVD is working. I need to find out if it takes the 12v or the 5v and I will be able to have it powered all the time.
I'm going to make it so the radio will still work.
Here's what I'm dealing with.
