Whats the best route for the money? headrest dvd or is there a flip down that will work and look good in the 08 xb? I am not much on this part but if anyone has pictures of flipdown dvd I would love to see it.

they have aftermarket flip-down monitors. it all depends on what you want. If it were me, i'd get the ones in the headrests because i think they look cool and later on a large flip-down just for shows (maybe connect it to my Wii). right now i have no need for them. maybe when my daughter gets a little older.

uhh.... i think timmer and nolimitz have'em

I need one for vacation, for my son. We are driving 11 hours and he needs his barny...lol I didn't want to pay for headrest right now because of cost, hoping someone had a picture of overhead that looks good installed to meet my $$$

Whispaz...I love the screens, I just got a 17" flip down and going to sterio shop to get some advice tomorrow and maybe he can hook me up since I know him. I will see if he wants to do my factory nav unit with the switch to bypass the safty where you can browse while the nav is on. I will be sure to list some good pictures when I get done. C-ya

My monitors are the Audiovox movies to go. They are 15.4" and have built in DVD's in them. I can watch a different movie on all of them or watch the same movie on all of them. The picture quality is awesome.

The install wasnt bad at all. There is a big metal brace up there where the domelight goes. The thing is make sure you do not use to long of screws. The hardest part I think is getting all the wiring up there. You have to make sure you go around the airbags that are up there.
I also have a back up camera. I put mine in the 3rd brake light.

Appreciate all the info, I just got back from the shop and he is going to order my dvd player, install the 17" monitor, put in my Navigation for 300.00 and he will supply all the wiring and modulator, whatever else he needs. Is that pretty good? It didn't sound to bad to me. He is mounting the dvd player under the rear seat on the plastic tray for easy access.
