Just got this:

Great system. I'd thought about a hard mount DVD for the 100, but we'll be able to use this in other vehicles or in a hotel if needed. It comes with a PILE of accessories - two headphones, battery for the main unit, AC adapter, 12v plug, cassette adapter for sound, and headrest mounts. The units themselves are well made, good skip protection, built in speakers in both LCDs, and very clear 7" screens.

I've been shopping these awhile. Audiovox is the other big name maker, but didn't have all the extras that came with these. Reviews of other makes from Bestbuy (Insignia) or Samsclub (Venturer) were horrible - DVDs skipping, screens dying, etc.

Is there a central DVD unit, does each screen have it's own, or is one the "master" playing the dvd? Are there aux inputs/outputs? Looks ok, curious to see it in a LC.

One has the player, the other is just a screen. Dunno about inputs. It'll look like two 7" screens strapped to headrests, nothing exciting.
