Great thanks for the notes. I hope to get this done as soon as possible before we take off for the lake this summer. I did find the monitors you have in your H2, why did you get two with the DVD insert to the right of the headrest? were they the only ones available? here is an auction on Ebay with the units you have for $369.95: CLick Me

Here is an image of the monitors:



Are they the same as yours? I will do the hook ups for the rear units but with the Pioneer AvicZ2 soon to be installed I will get me mechanic to do the job.

Thanks for the help!

Cheers!

2 DVD players = 2 different movies (we like to encourage individuality in the kids -- especially when they're tired & cranky at the end of a really long day...). Also, they can actually both watch one movie, with the 2nd DVD unit playing a different movie for my wife through her headphones.

I considered mounting 2 half-din DVD players where the on-star is, but decided my kids are old enough to change & set their own DVDs, and they can reach the headrests while still being seat-belted on during long highway driving.

I got mine from here $540 shipped (you'd also need to buy the 2-channels IR headphones & 4x4 AV Switcher ~ $700 total. No point to get 2 DVD players if you're not hooking it up to a multi-AV switcher). Very popular item, often sold out.

The one feature lacking was last position memory. If you have very young kids, that means YOU must search & continue the last scene played manually after every gas/food/potty stop, for each kid. Or, you can hook them up to be always-on instead of RAP power.

AVOID the Hithcam H-cam pictured above on the yellow H2 I have one. I can not get it serviced by them. They make promises but never deliver. Been trying for 6 months to get them to honor their warranty.

AVOID Hitchcam at any cost!!

The entire thing is corroding very badly, and even though under warranty, they will not fix it. They supply no installation info, so you are on your own also. It cost me over $1000 for it plus installation. What a ripoff!
