Overhead DVD player?

[shu873]

I was thinking of putting a DVD player in my truck to keep the kids busy in the back seat. I like the factory setup, but don't want to spend quite that much, also don't want the "cheap" strap on the back of the seat types either. Is there anyone out there who makes an aftermarket set up similar to the factory ford system? Something that looks good, works great and costs less??? Just checking to see if anybody else has gone this route and has some advise. Thanks.

how much does the stock system cost? when i installed my stereo system i was gonna do a 10" overhead display for my lil girl and the screen was only gonna cost like 250 bucks... you would have to buy a dvd player to play your movies into it but that wouldnt cost that much either... i was just gonna have mine integrated with my head unit for the dvd player.... hope this helps... i think clarion makes a nice one....

I checked Crutchfield and Best Buy and both have what I'm looking for for around $800 for a 10" LCD with a built in DVD player, 2 sets of wireless headphones, etc. Now if I can just get that price down a bit... I know the factory ford setup is about 1300 bucks as an option.

best buy is a lil expensive... i would try a shop that only does audio equipment..... youll prob be able to negotiate a better deal.... if not my buddy owns a couple of audio shops let me know exactly which system it is and i can get you a price for it.....
