Headrest DvD players vrs. Flip down DvD players?

[JameeW]

Does anyone have either a flip down dvd player or the dvd players in the headrests of their car/van/truck/suv? If you can you please tell me the pros and cons of them. We are looking to get one or the other for our dodge sport caravan for long trips that we take with 3 kids under the age of 8. If you could please also state how much you paid for it, where you got it from, and where you got it installed and the cost of the instillation. Thanks!

I love having our DVD player on long trips. My 3 year old loves it and we live 6 hours from both families so it keeps my husband and myself sane. We have a flip down monitor and honestly in our next vehicle we are having the headrest monitors put in because the flip down monitor blocks the rear view mirror which doesn't bother me but it aggravates my husband to death since he drives with all his mirrors. We only paid 500 for our flip down and 100 for installation which is a lot cheaper than we were quoted for the head rest installation. I think I will pay the extra 250 though to stop the complaining of my husband. I guess it depends on where you go for price though.
