Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I bought this as a custom drop down screen for my custom built `93 Dodge Ram Dually Crew Cab.Like one of the other reviews said, this TFT LCD has a stellar viewing angle.I can be within one foot of the screen but all the way to the DR or PS side of the truck in the back seat with the screen facing straight back and there are no problems viewing.The swivel feature is nice if only one person wants to watch.The manual control buttons work well (they are on the screen frame).The LED lights for overhead when the door open work good, there are two LEDs per side under each lens and they are the pure LED white color.I have not had a chance to try the infrared with our IR headphones but I can see a red glow from behind the IR panel on the unit.
The screen remote does not seem to communicate well with the screen, so you basically have to put it close and aim right at the sensor.You would only need the remote to change major color/tint/contrast/balance settings in most cases, however.
One note about the overhead LED lights... there are three wires: black, yellow and red.It appears that red and black are key to making them work, but only if yellow is connected to ground or to power also.I think the intent is that red is for "on with the doors" and yellow is for "switched on" with black to ground.No mention of how to hook them up in the manual/documentation.
There is a very tiny LED light button next to the silver screen release button that is intended for activating the LEDs (for example, when all doors are closed to use as map lights for rear seat passengers).On my older truck, the overhead lights are activated when the switch in the door sill grounds out with door open.The LED yellow/red setup doesn't work with the switch on the unit when wired to my truck.To get them to come on with the doors I just connected red and yellow to 12V (+) and then black to the switched door ground (-). They turn on and off with the doors but do not activate with the little switch.I bet newer cars provide power instead of ground for the overhead lights, so this will probably work perfect in newer cars (you could tie the yellow or red perhaps to the same main power wire for the LCD, thenthe other wire to the overhead lights).
There are two harness lead sets coming from the back edge (near driver) of the unit.The wires do not poke up directly from the mounting surface of the unit, they are out the side.This may not look as clean but they are black and hide well with the black casing.The first harness set is for the overhead LED lamps (described above) and the remaining wires are for power, ground, AV1 source, AV2 source, with red and white for audio.
I watched the 2003 version of the Italian Job on this screen and the resolution was just great as long as I plugged in a decent DVD player.Portable DVD players sometimes don't have high enough quality output so they can have lines on the screen (its not the screen's fault).I have two, one had better output than the other.
Because of the quality of this unit I am going to buy a Pyle in-dash DVD receiver to go with this unit, which Amazon has also.I would recommend this LCD TFT screen to my friends and colleagues.
