Very Nice Work! I wish I had the skills to do installs like that. I would be worried about someone taking out of my Titan down here in Atlanta though.

Very nice! I always thought I didn't need tv's inside the car, but my daughter is 1 year old now, I found out on the last trip that she gets bored quick, and cries, my 7 hour trip to NJ was a nightmare, but the TV would have helped us. So know I have to put in my plans to get a tv for her for future trips to NJ(family).
Question though;
The picture you got there the sun was hitting and you couldn't see a thing, was that a good place to put since the sun hits that spot all the time? You might want to put some kind of "shade piece" on top of the LCD to keep a good image. Some nice finished piece of plastic with velcro, this way you can remove it if you don't need it.

Just a suggestion (not to hijack thread) you could just get a portable DVD player and lay it on the center seat so she could see it. This works for my 2 yr old.
Malik112099, Great install pics! Good job, man! :wink:

In the last picture it looks like the monitor buttons are about half way into the dash. Is it easy enough to get your fingers in there?
Great looking install, but pic 3 is why I don't try this. That looks really scary with all the wires haning out. I just know that if I tried to work it I push the gas pedal and my headlights would flash or something.

yeah, its easy to press the buttons, but the monitor has a remote, so you dont have to worry too much about the buttons

thats nothign to worry about..all the connectors are different sizes so you cant accidently swap them and plug them into the wrong jack
