Does anyone have this overhead dvd/monitor in their truck? I have a rail system in my truck and I was wondering if anyone else has it. If so what do you think about it? and will it work with the rail system

Awesome DVD player. Love the "mom" controls.

The rail system will not work as it will take up the space the PKG needs. The PKG is just like any other OMV as far as mounting is concerned.

If i get one it will be that unit. NO QUESTION!

Not that I know of.

Your 12v and everything may already be there at the back of the light... You could always screw the ground into some body metal.... Might look like an antenna...

True but I was talking on a normal scale.

Of course if I wanted a 72" TV in my backwindow I could put one there....

fabricating a 72" and a 10.2" is a big difference, lol. I was wondering if you installers had any ideas that I can use for fabricating.
