There are numerous different configurations to select from when selecting a backseat DVD system.
One of the most standard options is a DVD, monitor, and sound configuration. This is where all components are discrete. You may be able to even add wireless headphones too. These systems can be very easy to install and can as well be configurable to an grand install.
You may also desire to check out several headrest monitors. These monitors may fit inside the headrest itself or inlaid on the headrest. These may deviate in sizes by 5 inches up to 7 inches. Some vehicle makers may have headrests that have been factory-made already.
With utilizing the headrests, you will still have to associate it to a DVD player or VCR. Just make sure that these components are harmonious with each other. In most examples, these components will be compatible. You can also use a receiver controller (if installed) that will commit the audio and video signal to these backseat monitors.
How about an overhead monitor? I have 1 of these in our Honda Odyssey. These monitors are affixed to the inside roof of the vehicle and closes down. When the monitor is mounted on the roof of the vehicle, it makes it a great deal better for all second seat passengers to be able to view the DVD or video.
There is likewise the all-in-one unit that straps on the back of the front seat or seats. Due to being self contained, these units can be powered by the vehicles cigarette lighter. More than likely, these units will sustain audio and picture outputs, as well as, an option to plug in some headphones.
With most of these units, you may be able to utilize your vehicles sound system. What you should expect for is if your head or controller unit in your dash has an audio input signal. These connections will in all likelihood be the RCA type connections (Red and White). There may as well be an option where this unit may broadcast audio via a FM Modulator. This means that the unit broadcasts a low power FM signal of the audio or sound. If this is the case, you can tune your in-dash receiver or controller to a specific FM channel (deemed by the producer, check into your manual) to hear the audio or sound.
There are a few different options you may go with when selecting a setup for your second seat passengers. You may be able to choose a full unit, headrest monitors, and an overhead fold down monitor.
