Finally had enough of the kids arguing over who got the center seat, so I picked this up and installed it. It's a Kenwood unit works great and even came with wireless headphone's. The Video is fed from the front Alpine unit. Tell me what you think. Flash Shot.No Flash. (sorry about the quality)

Very nice! If I didn't have a sunroof that is what I would do.

Your right should of thought of that...it's pretty much whats holding my car together anyways.Thanks for the positive comments. It is amazing how easy it was to install didn't even have to take the roof liner off. It's an easy Mod if you can afford the unit.

Did you have to cut up the headliner to install the monitor? 1

If possible - could you provide some details of the install? ie - does it replace the dome light?I'm thinking about picking up a docking station for our portable unit, and says it's supposed to replace the dome light -- so wondering how that install would work....

lol entertainment for you or your kids I have a mini lcd screen for my PS2 and I disconnected the screen from the housing and was going to build a fiberglass enclosure for it in the glove box for entertainment on the way to N. Carolina but they wouldnt let us rent a house til 23 yrs of age so I decided not to bother...Looks good!

There was a guy at the Ohio meet that had two monitors installed into the backrests, they really looked great.

Did you do it yourself?Yep. it does replace the dome light and whats convenient is that there is a metal bar right above it that I attached it to. You need two people to mount the unit up but the wiring was easy except wiring it to the brain.
