Does anyone have either a flip down dvd player or the dvd players in the headrests of their car/van/truck/suv? If you can you please tell me the pros and cons of them. We are looking to get one or the other for our dodge sport caravan for long trips that we take with 3 kids under the age of 8. If you could please also state how much you paid for it, where you got it from, and where you got it installed and the cost of the instillation. Thanks!
I had a truck that my nephews and I always took long road trips in. What we had was an 8" flip down t.v. that had RCA hookups. This meant that the kids could hookup their gaming systems and play together as opposed to them fighting over what movie to watch or whatever. The t.v.'s in the headrest are much more expensive and require longer time for install which in turn means more $$.
The flip down also meant that it could be a bigger screen, being that most headrests are tiny compared to the space in the cabin of your van. A bigger t.v. means the kids wont have to squint to watch it and it wont be right in front of their faces which could damage their eyes over time.
The flip down only cost about $175 total. This included the television (from the local pawn shop/swap shop/flea market etc) and professional install from any local audio place. I knew t.v. was name brand, but someone sold it to a pawn shop so their loss was my gain.
hope this helps!
