Customer Reviews


Great product...manufacturer was very helpful in the installation process..first installer said it could not be installed in a Honda van..manufacturer said that it could be done..went to a second installer and he completed it in 2 hours and at a cheaper price..
If you have a professional complete the installation, the manufacturer extends the warrantee from one year to three years...the unit comes in black, but includes the necessary parts to have it be grey or tan. The dvd player sends the signal thru the an FM signal to your radio, so the sound of the dvd player goes thru all the speakers in the radio. Once your child can use headphones, then the signal will go to them, and you then can listen to your radio again
Only problem so far is that the remote does not work very easily, but the controls on the front of the unit are very user friendly and easy to get to.
Our daughter loves the dvd player and it keeps her entertained while in the van... I would recommend the Boss DVD player, as it was one third the cost of the dvd player that the car dealer installs and twice the size of the screen..a win..win..

I ordered this unit from Amazon last week as it had all the specs I was looking for. It did not disappoint. I installed the unit in my '08 Toyota Sienna, and not only does it look great, but functions great as well. The picture is good, and the FM modulator works well too. We bought 3 IR headphones for the kids, and they work well too.
We will be using this for the first time on a road trip to Palm Springs, so we're excited to keep the kids occupied during the long drive.
Just a little note - I first was going to have this installed at Fry's Electronics. I did not get the feeling the people I talked to at the 2 different branches knew what they were talking about. They tried to up-sell me on things I knew I didn't need (like a DIFFERENT FM modulator), and also said they would need to install a bracket in my headliner that would drop down a couple inches. This just didn't sound right to me. I took the unit to Best Buy instead (install would cost $30 more than Fry's). He wired my RCA cables under the seats for free, didn't try to up-sell me on things, and made the unit look fantastic. (no ugly drop-down brackets needed) Best Buy also has a lifetime warranty on their service, which makes me feel happy about the work they did. I know you can't judge a COMPANY by their employees, but I just happened to have a much better experience with Best Buy's $200 install.
