Entertainment Headrest Monitors/Front Moniters

Hello everyone,

I am new to the forum, and I am about to purchase my first Tacoma. Its a 2013 Double Cab TRD Sport long bed. I am trying to put some Monitors in the truck, but debating about the monitor in the front. I do not want to take out the stock head unit, and was thinking of putting a monitor somewhere up front.

Anyone have any ideas or pictures of what they have done to their Tacoma?
I was thinking of mounting a type of video game console, so on long trips, people can play games or watch movies. Just trying to figure out where to mount or fit what?

Also, what kind of sound system you have in your truck if any?

Any and all advice will be very appreciated. Thanks in advance!

 

NOT in the front. The only monitor you should have in the front is for your GPS.

I would suggest a ceiling mounted flip down monitor for the back seat, if anything at all. It should be mounted such that the monitor is OUTSIDE of the driver's peripheral vision.

BTW: You might consider just getting tablets for your kids. They're cheap (i.e., about $100 for a 10" tablet -- get china brand, not american brand) and can do pretty much anything you'd be doing with a built in monitor.

 

Thanks, I was thinking about the Ceiling mounted flip down, but just gotta figure out the size that will fit well in the middle and comfortable to view.

do you have a set up in your truck this way?
