Takes some work to get it right, but overall pretty good
By Mendy
After doing a lot of research for a pair of headrest DVD players, I settled upon this one. I was concerned about how well the leather would match my seats, and I am satisfied overall. Once I applied some Lexol leather cleaner/conditioner to darken the headrests, they matched my seats quite well. It is hard to see in the available pictures, but the headrests are covered in a leather with a slight grain, which match the seats of my 2003 VW Passat perfectly.Wiring the headrests was tricky, but once I figured out that threading the wires coming out of the headrests DOWN the inside of the seat covers (rather than threading the connector wires UP the seats) by using wire from a coat hanger, the process was straight forward. To be sure that I didn't puncture the leather with the coat hanger wire, I thoroughly wrapped the tip in tape at least 5 to 10 times. Once I did this it was fairly easy to thread. (This is an important step, or the coat hanger will poke right through the leather seat cover!). I also found that inserting a dowel up the bottom of the seat covers to separate the back of the seat cover away from the main frame and padding provided a gap that made fishing the wires down the seat MUCH easier.I had trouble finding a switched power source, so I wired a toggle switch that is mounted in the center armrest so that I can cut the power to the headrests to avoid draining the battery when not in use. (The switch also gives me ultimate control over the use of the headrests by my kids - a fact that my two seven year old boys don't appreciate that much).The units play mp4 video that I converted with Handbrake and burned to a disk easily. The picture quality is pretty good for all video sources, although resolution is a little low. I have not tried the usb or memory card reader yet.One last point of clarification - the specs to not clearly say how many AV inputs and outputs are provided. The headrests include one A/V input and output that can be connected to the wires that are run through the seats, and a second set of inputs and outputs that can be accessed through the front panel of the unit. I connected both headrests to the video out of my head unit, which has a DVD player and iPod access, using a simple RCA splitter with excellent results. That way, my boys can watch a video connected to my head unit through my iPod simultaneously, or they can play their own DVDs using the player in the headrest.One last tip - make sure to ground the headrests to the car's frame using as short a wire as possible. If you run a long ground wire (as long as your power wire, for example), you will get interference from the car's alternator coming through the head unit if it is connected to one, which can be really annoying.

DVD Headrest
By DW
Highs: 1yr warranty. Better quality than non-branded units on ebay. Ability to connect 2 headrests together to play and watch from either or both headrests. Infra-Red headphone capable but not included.Lows: Games/game controller are low quality. No headphones.I purchased this Pyle DVD headrest to replace a similar looking non-branded DVD headrest that I purchased on ebay that only lasted 30days before the display went out. I will never get burned by ebay and questionable sellers with no warrany and a 7-day return policy again. Note: I wasn't able to leave feedback to warn others on ebay because it was past 30days. Ebay simply said Oh-well, that's our policy.This Pyle DVD headrest has a 1 year warranty and it has the video/audio in/out cables to connect 2 of these DVD headrest in the car. The kids love the option of watching their own movie or watching the same movie. Our kids are 6 and 8, so my wife or I usually have to get the movies going because the remote might be confusing, at least until they get used to it.The Pyle DVD headrest is better quality than the ebay unit I replaced. For example, the hinge is more robust and the flat, flexible ribbon cables have a strain relief and guide to prevent damage. All around it seems that Pyle's engineering specified a higher end product. The instruction manual is also better than the off-brand unit that I have.The IR headphones that we had from the previous headrest work perfect with the Pyle DVD headrest and have both A and B channels. I wish Pyle included a set.Don't buy it for the games.

By Smit1877
I was very impressed with the picture quality of this unit. Pyle has a decent reputation for LCD quality so I picked this up. I needed an all-in-one with the DVD player because my 7" dvd headunit likes to eat and ruin discs so I didn't want to just get a monitor one to run off of the front and risk breaking disc after disc. The features are nice, things like the games and controller are clunky and I will probably never use them but it reads discs great, picture quality is GREAT! Sound is good enough, but won't blow you away. My daughter cannot be happier with it though.The only thing to note is, depending on your car, be ready for an install day. This is not a "take the old headrest off, plop this in and done." No no no, the wires gave me a lot of trouble because they always came up too short to grab from the bottom of the seat, so I was forced to make a cut (under the seat so it is unnoticeable) and cram my arm up there with the 2nd part and connect them with one hand. It worked, but was highly inconvenient. I wish they would have put longer cords on these, but I got it to work. You will also have to tap into a power and ground source. Ground source is easy, and I just used the power my amp in the back was getting and that was easy enough. It looks clean with no wires showing and was a slick install. Just know what you are buying before you buy. Go buy a portable DVD player if you are a soccer mom who just wants to plug something into the cigarette lighter, have cords running everywhere, and go. If you want a clean install that looks great and you have the know how to install this, don't hesitate to buy! Great product.
