    I have been searching and found no answer yet. I want to install two DVD headrest in my 06 dbl cab. I seen a lot of post of already installed dvd headrest. My question is where do you get power from to make the DVD player run???

    I have double din DVD that feeds 2 7inch monitors. I ran the video out and power from head unit down the center console. Then split it and out each side under the seat and up the seat to the headrests.

    I would run another power wire with a fuse/relay to the head rests and follow the same path that Nocents listed.

    Has anyone install overhead DVD on your 3rd Generation Taco yet? If you do, can you post some pictures? I want to install one on mine but I am a little concern about the space. Thanks

    I was just talking to my kids about this today, we are thinking headrest monitors over a single overhead dvd screen though.

    But, keep a few things in mind on overhead screens... they need something solid to bolt to. The headliner is too thin to support the weight of one, it will end up bouncing all over the place.
