Guide to Buy a DVD System with Dual Monitors for a Car or Minivan

Mobile video systems are a way of providing car passengers with on-the-road visual entertainment. A typical video system includes a monitor (or multiple monitors), a media player and an audio component. A DVD system is an increasingly popular feature in cars and minivans today, and many vehicles come equipped from the factory with a wide array of video system options. If you are interested in having a dual monitor video system installed in your car or minivan, follow these tips for how to buy a DVD system with dual monitors.

    1
    Determine where you want to install your monitors. Depending on your space, you have a few options. You can mount the monitors in the front seat headrests, have them mounted into a recess in the back of the front seats, or hang them from the ceiling.

    2
    Decide which features you would like your DVD system to have. You have several to choose from and they will all affect your cost and the amount of space you will need for installation.
        Navigation system. Many mobile video systems also double as navigation systems.
        Video games. If you have the space and use your vehicle to drive children around (as is the case with many minivans), you may opt to add a video game system.
        Surround sound. Optimize your viewing experience with a surround sound speaker installation.
        Additional media players. If you have a large collection of VHS tapes, you may want to install a VCR alongside your DVD player. If you want to be able to watch television programming on your car video system, you can choose to install a satellite.

    3
    Conduct an online search for DVD system manufacturers.

    4
    Request brochures from each manufacturer on their line of products and use those brochures to decide which products best match your wants and needs.

    5
    Shop around for your product and compare prices. Be sure to explore all of the following:
        Online retailers.
        Online auction sites.
        Classified ads, both online and in local newspapers.
        Auto upgrade and stereo shops.
        Retail stores with electronics departments.

guide to Power a Car Amplifier Using a Computer Power Supply

If you recently switched vehicles and have no room for that big subwoofer in your new car, don't give it or throw it away. Keep it. Use it inside or outside your house by having it powered by a computer power supply. 1 Find the power pin. In the power supply packaging (if bought new) there should be a pinout diagram. Look for the pin that says something along the lines of “Power on”, "PS OK" or other key words that indicates a on signal. It will be on the biggest pigtail. 99% of the time it will be a green wire on new power supplies, but for older power supply “10+ years” the wire could be yellow or purple. If your power supply did not come with a pinout diagram, check the manufacturer website for a pinout diagram. 2 Cut the power wire from the pin and strip the end. 3 Cut the ground wire from the pin and strip the end. Refer to the pinout diagram to know which color is the ground wire. 99.9% of the time it will be t

Guide to Get LoJack for a New Car

"LoJack" is the trade name for a wireless radio transponder the size of a deck of cards that can be installed in a motor vehicle, either at the time of purchase or at a later time, to discourage the vehicle from being stolen. When a LoJack-equipped car is reported stolen, the police activate LoJack's inaudible tracking signal, which can penetrate tunnel and garage walls, ship containers, and dense foliage. If you're planning to buy a new car, you may want to consider buying a LoJack system. 1 Know whether LoJack coverage is available in your area. LoJack's radio signal requires special computer equipment to be tracked; not all police departments have the appropriate equipment. A list of counties within states where LoJack coverage is available is given at http://www.lojack.com/Buy-LoJack-Products/Check-Coverage, and is also available by calling 1-800-456-5225 (1-800-4-LoJack). The telephone list is usually more current than the website list.
