Which after market video setup would you go with?

I am looking to get an overhead video player instead of the head rest video system to save some cash.

Roof mount or indash? :Chevy:

roof

I would go for Indash. but that's me!:cool2:

It is mainly for the little cherubs in the back.

Oh ok.

Headrests all the way. I couldn't stand not being able to see out my rear view mirror.

Thats true too

I got the overhead and it is nice, but hard to see out the rearview. Circuit City had a special on the Jensen 8.5" overhead ($499). They had it with free installation. Which normally runs about $179. Then you need all these extra parts like a hardwire fm transmitter $50, some extra cable for it etc etc etc. I ended up aroung $750 including tax with free install.

The unit works fine, some issues with the DVD player working correctly. Make sure you get the extended warranty on this unit. Read all the circuit city reviews on it if you want this model. I do get some rattling which is annoying and I hope to track down. Because of the rattling I wish I got the headrest unit. You can get them on ebay for $900 and each unit has its own dvd player. So each kid can watch something different with there head phones on.

If I didn't have a hole now in my headliner I would sell you my overhead unit and buy the ebay headrest dvds. They are already installed in the headrests. So sweet.

Just saw on another forum that GM is coming out with a dockable DVD player (roof mount).

it's already out. to expensive. they are made by Visteon who used to be part of Ford and then they split.
I used to install those dockable systems like 2-3 years ago. but I can still get a really good deal on them with more options them the one they made for GM

here is the link for info

here is some flush mount monitor install idea.

Geek.....any 411 on the carputer yet?

Rear DVD

I also can't stand not being able to see out of my rear view mirror.

The bonus to the headrest setup is that you can watch two different things if you want to in most setups.

Also, if you decide to get another tahoe in the next couple of years you can take your system and put it in the next one a lot easier than the roof mount systems.
