car dvd players?????

dazedconfu

are these worth it? what are some good brands?

Answer
I have an older model van and didn't want to put the expense into installing a DVD player in it permanently. We looked into portable DVD players but they seemed unstable and would mount lower than we wanted (most of them mounted in-between the front head rests so that people in the back seat would have a hard time seeing the screen) When we were getting ready to drive to Utah with small children we realized we needed something to keep them entertained. Then we found a dual screen portable DVD player and we love it. It is an RCA 7" 16:9 Portable DVD Player with Dual TFT-LCD Monitors. The two screens can be mounted separately and attach to headrests. (We put one on the front seat headrest and the second on the middle seat headrest) The screen is also the DVD player so there are only the two parts with a cable running between them. The nice thing about the one that we bought is that you can take it with you into a hotel room and it will play the DVD on a regular TV and it also comes with video games that can be played either while the second screen is watching a movie or displayed on a TV. (the video games aren't high graphics but are geared towards younger kids, although we had fun playing them too. Some of them are 80's knock-offs like frogger and centipede) The $200 was well worth the hours of quiet (non-fighting) travel time. Good luck!

Im thinking of buying some headrest monitors/dvd player?

jay ess

I was wondering what are some good brands and if it is possible to watch different things on each monitor, but also able to watch the same thing on each monitor if wanted to?

Answer
for good brands i would say pioneer and sony, im not too sure if you can watch different things on each monitor or at the same time, but i think there should be a way.

Portable DVD Players??

Q. Has anybody every bought a Audiovox 9" portable DVD player? I am looking in to purchasing a portable DVD player for my son so he can stay occupied while on a trip. I found a good deal for audiovox 9" but I am not sure how the quality is. So if anybody knows anything about these or which would be a better portable dvd player that I can attach to the headrest please let me know!

Thanks

Answer
We have this same one -- got it at Costco for a long trip. Works great, with a nice big screen. The protective case is a bit hard to deal with, but the player is great. It also lets you plug in a camera to view pictures. I recommend it.

HEADREST DVD PLAYER for my car???

NDN

So, I need to get two 7'' DVD players inserted into the back of two headrests. I've only been able to find monitors meaning they don't have the DVD players with them. My question is... Where can I get them???


Serious answers only please.

Thanks in advance.
DEFINATELY, not a mom yet. Just want to trick out my car.

Answer
well is this just vanity or are you a mother of kids going out on a family vacation?

b/c if its just vanity to make your car look good or if its just for friends than the answer is its a waste of money...you might as well buy a portable dvd player and buy a strap or harness to attach it in between the two seats...dont forget to buy a converter adaptor as it might run out of battery.

you can check autoshops such as Pepboys , ACE, or Autozone....but if they dont have them in these places you can GOOGLE it and find related sites that may sell them...or better yet check any local audio/digital car shops that would be inclined to sell audio appliances and/or automobile entertainment devices.

Headrest dvd player in 2006 kia sedona?

$$$

I was thinking about buying one of the universal headrest DVD player for my 2006 Kia sedona but I read somewhere that it might not work. Anyone have any experience with this. I heard that due to the active headrest,it might not be possible to install. Also if it is possible what is a good brand that does not cost an arm and leg.

Answer
There shouldnt' be any reason why an active headrest would prevent you from installing a universal DVD player. The only thing that would keep it from working is if you got into an accident. Then the active headrest might break the strap of the DVD player or something like that....but even that might not happen. But if that ever happened, I doubt the portable DVD player would be your main concern. :-) Besides, if you got into an accident and have insurance, then your insurance company should cover the cost of anything in the vehicle that was damaged. Check with your insurance company.

My wife and I are looking at the Philips portable car DVD players that Wal-Mart carries on their web site. I think they have 7-inch and 9-inch screens. They're under $200.

Good luck and God bless!

How do I fix a portable DVD player onto a rental car? Can I?

best buy headrest dvd players image

pakk

I am trying to decide if I should buy an audiovox dvd player (D1817PK) for a road trip that I am doing with our son who will be 20 months old when we travel. Can I just strap it around the front headrest? Else, should I expect him to hold it?

Answer
The best thing to do is strap it because your son may not be able to hold it right and the DVD player might end up falling and possibly breaking.

Where can I get a good DVD player with Headrest TV screens?

Ben

I was trying to find those headrest TV screens and a DVD player for my 2007 Dodge Ram but can't seem to find anything for my truck. Is there a good place to buy that? I went to Best Buy today and they were clueless and told me that they can only get those for SUV's. Is that true? Why not a truck?

Answer
There probably isn't enough business for a company to build vehicle-specific units for trucks. And at any rate, I've found that the folks at Best Buy are clueless in just about everything.

Here's one source for a generic unit that replaces the factory headrests. The mount is adjustable from 4-7" so it will fit most vehicles. Just measure the "posts" on your headrests to see if it fits. These are delivered with black, gray, and tan covers.

http://www.crutchfield.com/p_385CLD700/Concept-CLD-700.html?search=headrest+dvd

Crutchfield will tell you if they fit.

If you are a first-time purchaser at Crutchfield you can get a $20 discount off a $200 order if you use a "friend referral code" such as mine, which is: p7sdj-hrx8q-9800g, plus free shipping. Oh!, I get a $20 merchandise credit too.
