Car Video

Though it seemed like an impossibility for years, car video is now becoming a standard feature in many vehicles. Full size monitors as well as visor-sized screens are available both in many vehicles from the manufacturer or as stand alone products. You can self-install car video into your current automobile or have a professional install a system for you.Originally considered luxury items available only in town cars and limos, car video players are now priced for use in all cars. Your passengers can watch television, VHS tapes, or DVDs while traveling. Car video tuners are perfect for long trips as they not only keep you entertained, but can help you stay up to date with local news, weather, and traffic. There are a variety of car video players available for self installation. An in-dash module is the easiest to install and works much like car CD players. You simply remove your current radio or CD player and replace it with the in-dash video tuner faceplate. You will be able to play CDs, DVDs, perhaps even MP3 CDs, as well as tune in to local TV stations.In-dash car video tuners work in conjunction with a monitor. Most people choose to install visor style monitors, as they are the most compact. They are easily installed in the front of the car in place of traditional sun visors. Other car monitors are available that can be attached to the center of your dashboard. Monitors that attach to the car's ceiling or the back of the driver's seat are available to entertain passengers in the back seat.
