Flip Down DVD Players

I am looking into installing a flip down DVD player for my 07 double cab to keep the kids entertained and our sanity on long trips. Input from anybody wh has done this would be greatly appreciated, especially related to installation, model operating experience, and problems.

Thanks
Ken

 

I've looked at those, but think the vinyl headrest will look cheap and out of place with my cloth interior. Not to mention the resolution on those are bad.

I like this guy's install, but the flip down he bought is pretty expensive. Although he got a smoking deal on his...

you can find those that cheap on ebay.... just dont go too big.. the bracing on these trucks arent the best

 

That would be sweet, but it seems like you would have to place it too far forward just to make it visible. But maybe not I have never really looked.

 

I have a portable one with two screens which is perfect for my kids. It's also geat beacuse it's not always in the vehicle.

 

I know it's not what you asked...but why not let the little snowflakes read a book or color or something??

I would think even in a double cab a flip down set up would be "pain in the neck" for a kid...A hanging one off the back of the seat would seem a bit more conducive to the kid using them...

 

Where did you get yours? We've talked about getting a portable one so we can switch it between the Tacoma and our car.
