Default Question about slave monitors...

Ok I am currently running two 7" LCD Farenheight monitors in my headrests.
Now I need one for the front. SO I have a few questions:
1. What's a good slave monitor to get? How much will it run me? and Who can I get it from?
2. How hard is it to wire the TV to my existing TV setup?

I want to get the TV mounted where BananGS has his, right in the center console, but I want to keep the stock radio.


Thanks for any help!

what do you mean by slave monitor and if you want another fahrenhiet monito to make your install complete Ill find one for you. Also the install shouldnt be to difficult however running the wires up front from your tuner or switcher will be the biggest hassle which is nutin to really worry about.

lexdub,

Let me know what you can find for farenheight monitors. By slave I mean it connects to the DVD player I have in the trunk.
All it is for is watching TV, nothing else.

As for my location, as of now, im in FL for school, so that's out of the question. I'll probably find someone down here to do it for me, it shouldn't cost me that much.


Let me know

Thanks

Can you get me a variety of prices from different brands and sizes. Just make sure they are plain ole slave monitors, nothing fancy.

I want to see your prices before I decide what I want.

futuregs, why dont u jsut get an AV splitter, ivce seen ones as cheap as $40 - 70 then they have more expensive ones which let u do other things.
this one ive seen was like $40 and was a 7 way splitter. meaning you can plug ur dvd player into it and connect up to 7 different monitors to it. not only do they make it easy to hook up, they are also a video amplifier, so every monitor gets a nice picture.
as myself in the some time future i may have as many as 8 tvs. and i want to find a switcher that has 8 or 9 different outputs, and really all i need is like 3 or 4 inputs for dvd, ps1, and a camera.
if anyone knows a good switcher please let me know, or seen one with alot of outputs
