alright here is my take on this: your Pioneer doesn't have an aux in, at least I don't think it does. you can get an adapter so you can have aux in through the changer connection, as long as you don't already have a changer or satellite radio. the aux in will be for the sound coming from the ps2, so you can play it through the stereo. so audio signal from ps2 to radio. now does your flip down have headphones that go along with it? if so you will want to run the audio signal to the flip down also, so 2 rca Y adapters will be needed.
now that leaves you with the video signal.

I'm assuming that the 2 visor mount screens have just a video cable coming out, no box to plug into. and the flip down will have a video cable coming from it also. you will most likely need a video amplifier to run the 3 screens off the ps2. this way the picture quality will be clean. I believe radio shack will have the video amplifier, shouldn't be very much. all you do is plug the video cable into the video amplifier and the 3 video cables from the screens into the video amplifier.

that should be it. sounds simple, right? it really is simple, just take your time and always ask questions if you're not sure about something.

violent b is correct... except there are two pioneer parts that you can shose from, CDRB10 if you don't need a spot for the changer, and CDRB20 if you have a changer...

a local stereo shop should have the video amp... try contacting dghotlava to see if you can get one since he is more local..
