    What kind of DVD player do you have in your Pilot. My wife wants a drop
    down; I think headrest is "cooler" and safer. Does the drop down impair
    rearview mirror view? Can the people in the back see OK? What sizes
    screens are working for you?

  2. You can get a bigger screen on a drop down than a head rest model. For
    me that would be the biggest selling point. Yes it block some of the rear view
    mirror view, but that should not be a problem if you are using all of your
    mirrors.

    not sure about in pilot, but factory drop down dvd in odyssey blocks very
    little from the rear view mirror. Having quiet children in back - now that
    is safety.

    The other issue is unless you are planning two seatback monitors, someone
    will get crummy viewing. Drop down gives the best angle compromise to all
    viewers.

    Why buy a DVD player that sits in the vehicle. I bought a laptop computer
    for the kids,. 15" screen, DVD player, game player, Internet access etc...
    and you know what? they can take it in the bedroom, I can use it in the
    other car and wherever we want.

    Just a suggestion

    1 laptop + 1 5-year old + 1 17 month old = 1 broken laptop

  7. not to mention 1 pissed off mom, who wants stuff that just works. She
    doesn't want to fiddle.

    For that purpose, there's nothing like factory integration.

    Too many people want technology for the sake of fiddling with
    technology, an end in itself. Others want to use it as a tool, a means
    to an end.
