Default Express 1500 Passenger DVD

Can anyone tell me what I would need and how to install a DVD player for my kids? It's a basic express van with factory radio no bells and whistles, ie. cruise control, auto window, etc... We have a long trip to Fl in May and I have four kids. Thanks for any advice.

hack a hole in the roof where you want the unit to be, run your wires up front to get 12+ acc and ground. Depending on the unit that you have, you may also have to tap into the dome light circuit. You don't HAVE to use the steel bracket that comes with the unit, you may use a piece of plywood to screw it to.....just make sure you support it good using a brace in the roof

Make sure to look at one form Crutchfields. They have free support and diagrams to install everything.

I installed a sound system and they were great. They send you all of the directions and you can call free as much as you want and talk with an American tech that will take you though it step by step.

Crutchfields has a great reputation. there is no one else like them
