So now the younguns are getting older, looking at getting some screens for them to watch DVDs in the back seat of the 380.
Firstly, either way, I will need to install the second power socket in the centre console, but that should be easy to do when I get the part. Anyone know the part number (genuine) and price?
Question 1
Should I get two screens in the back for them (one each) or is one in the middle for them to share okay without neck craning etc?
Question 2
Am I best off just getting an independent system for the back (cheaper), or should I go the whole hog and get a new head unit with a video out to play movies to stand alone screen/screens on the back?
Question 3
What units to people recommend? I won't buy cheap Chinese ebay stuff. Have had a bad experience with Sony car sound and nothing but good experiences with pioneer. The avh x8550bt looks good and has the iphone 5 connectivity which I need. If I get that I'm looking about $1000 plus 150 for the iphone 5 connectivity, plus 50 for two aerpro harnesses, plus about $150 for a rear screen.
Any tips/ideas/recommendations?
