Anyone got info on adding a dvd player and screens in the neckrests on a 2004 supercrew. I have the stock 6 disc cd changer w/o audiophile?

Thanks!

 

Try crutchfield, they are a great company. Here are links to the car DVD systems.

Thanks, for the links... seems like the have head-rest packages for every vehicle on the planet but the F150.... Will check em out, they can probably lead me in the right direction. Have you used them for video systems in the past?

 

Your question really depends on how mild or wild you want to go. Are you planning on keeping your factory head unit? You asked about neck rest monitors. Are you thinking about getting the brackets that mount to the headrest posts, or do you want to have monitors installed in your headrests? Another option for the headrests is to get a full replacement headrest with the monitors already installed in them. For this option, you can look at vizualogic, rosen, myron & davis, audiovox, etc. It is really a matter of personal preference.

If you want to buy monitors to be installed, I recently saw some Luxma monitors. I had never heard of them before and didn't expect much from them, but one of my co-workers had them installed in his Suburban and I was very impressed with the quality.

Let me know if you have any other questions and I will try to help you out.

 

Thanks!. I have a lot of decisions to make. I was planning on keeping the factory radio w/cd changer. Want the monitors in the headrests (not brackets). Would like a dvd player (possibly a dvd changer) in the center console or under one seat. Still debating if I want the dvd sound to come through the factory speakers or not (would like to have the option to play cd's or use the radio when dvd's are playing and the kids are using headsets to listen...) Also would be ideal for the kids to watch two different movies. Does this make any sense?

 

Got mine at Good Guys buy a company called vizulogic. The website is http://www.vizualogic.com.

 

You can keep the factory head unit and have the option of playing the sound through the door speakers. For your headsets, I would definitely recommend that you go with a set that is RF based (900 mHz) as opposed to IR based. The IR rely on line of sight to maintain their signal, whereas the RF esentially work like a cordless phone. If you want to be able to play different movies on each monitor, you either have to spring for an additional DVD player, or you can hook up a game console that is capable of playing DVD's (eg., PlayStation 2). Most monitors have 2 inputs on them, so you can hook up both DVD players (sources) to each input (for example, the DVD player to input 1 and the 2nd source to input 2). By setting up this way, you can watch the same thing on both moitors, or you can watch/play one thing on one and play/watch something different on the other.

DVD players are cheap enough that you can buy 2 for a pretty reasonable cost (around $150-200 each). The monitors can get pricey (about $400 each installed). These are just general figures. You could pay more or less. Vizualogic systems seem very good to me. The nice thing about them is that it is a full replacement headrest with a monitor installed in it. Feel free to email if you have any other questions.

 

Thanks a bunch Guys... This site rocks
