For people who have travelling as one of their best pastimes, investing in a car video is a very good choice. A car video is a versatile tactic to keep the boredom out of a long trip and as well as keep the kids busy and happy.
Children or small kids are often bored and get irritated by a long trip. For them sitting at the same place for a long time can be tiresome and they can as a result endanger the driving experience with their incessant queries or questions. As such an Auto Video would be a good investment to keep the children happy and placated for a long time.
The car videos can be fitted on the roof or they can be added to the back seat. The two main ways of attaching video equipment is:

• Front seat Video System:
  These can be fitted into the standard opening of the cars dashboard. They are attached with a folding and motor-powered 6.5" to 7" monitor. Modern technologies have now enabled crisper pictures in these video by making the monitors LCD and higher costing versions are LED. These systems are very capable of handling all the different kinds of music as well as the video requirements. They can include the use of MP3s, DVDs, CDs and radio and Satellite Television as well.


• Back Seat Car Video System:
  These are fitted to the back seats and are generally meant for the entertainment of the back seat passengers. These are employed to keep the children engaged for a long time. There are several components of this type of video system. There is a monitor that is either straddled to the front seats headrest at the back or in other way it can be suspended from the top of the roof. Care should be taken not to attach this type of video equipment to that of a sun roof or a roof that can be opened. Mostly the ones that are suspended from the top are preferred because of their better picture and sound quality as well as ease of installation.

Most of these monitors need extra equipments with them. For instance for those who wish to see satellite television need to install an antenna or a set top box which has to be strategically placed either on the roof or the dashboard to allow quality reception. For multiple viewing, wireless headphones are also necessary. Care should be taken to buy all these from a reputed dealer only.
