Didnt work Went through the painstaking task of installing this in our truck having to put wires through the headrest and everything all to where when we tried it with the little one on Christmas morning it did not work. Everything was connected and done correctly.
OK while it lasts died after 7 weeks This unit looks like it fulfills quite a few requirements inexpensive easyish to install but beware bare wires power input and plays videos well MP4 from disc or SD card. Also has remote and purports to play games which I guess it does but the games are TERRIBLE and you simply wouldn't want to.On the downside this unit lasted only seven weeks until it would not power on at all. Took car seat apart checked connections checked fuse in the power lead attached to car's 12V socket all ok. Unit is just DEAD.Now apparently I can't get my money back from Amazon so I suppose they have a month's warranty? Really? Come on folks that's ridiculous. If I thought it would die after 30 days I would not have spent ANY money on it.Please AVOID these shoddy items on Amazon.
Nice concept but the build quality leaves a lot to be desired. I actually feel bad about writing a negative review on a Pyle product. In the late '80's when I was working my way through college installing Pyle audio products they always represented a solid bang for the buck and had outstanding customer service. Flash forward 25 years give or take a few and I am looking for an allinone headrest DVD combination for my 5 yearold son and up comes this Pyle product in Amazon's search engine.. fantastic. I place my order and true to form for Amazon the product is shipped quickly and arrives at my house in about two business days.This is where things come apart a bit. The first unit that I received I carefully installed in about an hour in our 2011 Golf TDi running the power wire and ground was the biggest challenge in getting the cable through the back of the seat and down the inside of the top portion to the console and after doing my initial testing it seemed that the DVD drive was dead upon arrival. That in and of itself was not that big of a deal and after a few clicks of my mouse I had a replacement unit sent to my doorstep and since the wiring on the old unit was the same as the new I quickly boxed up the defective unit for the new one.. and it was blissful for the three weeks that it was working in the car.To this units' credit it does work well with the Pyle headphones and it is easy for children to use. I take special care to make sure that the DVD's we carry in the car are cleaned often every week with the car being cleaned so that his mother can drive in uninterrupted and undistracted peace and to ensure that there isn't any skipping. So after about three weeks of working properly the unit decided that it couldn't read a disc anymore. Keep inmind that this car is garagekept and the operating temperatures that it was exposed to were not anything horrible most everywhere the car is taken it is under some sort of shelter and not exposed to damaging humidity or extremes of heat or cold. I tried a plethora of discs including some that were brandnew out of the box and even doublechecked the discs in our finicky 12 yearold spare DVD player and they too worked flawlessly.The final straw came when I reached out to Pyle directly after the exchange timeframe was exhausted with Amazon where I was onhold for about 15 minutes before reaching a rather gruff customer service agent in the Bronx. He informed me that shipping costs bothways would be on me along with the need for a $15 money order and the turnaround time might be as much as six weeks.
Great deal!!! Dvd player and monitor works great easy installation compatible cover and color fits ok.
Piece of JUNK!! Purchased this dvd player for my daughter to watch movies while in the car. First I had it professionally installed only to find out that the screen would not illuminate. The image barely showed up. I contacted PYLE for warranty repairs. I had to pay to ship the thing out and pay $15 to have it shipped back. I said okay no biggie at least then it will be fixed.I got it back plugged it up and everything worked.for now. Started driving down the road unit began to skip and then stopped reading the DVD's all together. I won't bother sending it back don't want to throw away another $25. Why spend good money after bad.
Easy to install and good quality!! Great DVD headrest have one in both cars and just hooked up a pair for a friend!!!!! Easy to link as a pair so each child can watch their own disk or the same disc from either side.
Somewhere between great and horrible We bought this to entertain the 3 year old on longish trips something it took us a while to give into. It has a laundry list of cool features at a pretty low price. You can read as well as I did in the product description all it claims to do. I will list below the real world realitiesI was smitten with the idea of a 1632gb card full of movies that I wouldn't have to be reaching back and changing all the time. Fill it up but don't ever turn off the car every time the unit turns off and on the SD/USB card input will reload from the beginning..or wire the unit to a constant on with a toggle switch and pray you don't forget it and drain the battery.The screen/dvd door is a bit delicate don't let the 3year old touch it or it will be pulled too far out and not want to work properly unless it's set just right forevermore.There are some movie functions say a disc asks you english or spanish during autoload are only accessible from the remote there is no onunit way to navigate questions such as these.You must be particular what format .avi seems to work you put on burned discs or cards some will refuse to play regardless what you do.
Great Product! I was looking for a DVD player for a long car ride10 hours/1 way with 13 kids aged 48. One rode with me on the way to and three rode with me on the way back. After reading SEVERAL reviews and comparing prices I chose the PYLE PLD72BK. I have nothing but high praise to date! I also purchased a second monitor by PYLEand had both installed by a very good car accesories shop.
Great Product Like others here I did an extensive search for a headrest DVD player & finally settled on this. I was not disappointed. The installation was very straight forward & anyone who has wired up anything in a car before will not have any trouble.Another plus was the black leather of the unit matched the interior of my 2011 Ford Expedition EL Limited perfectly.I highly recommend getting a pair of IR headphones to go with this DVD player.
Headrest DVD I would give this a 4 out of 5 stars if the DVD player PLAYED EVERY DVD INSERTEDbut it doesn't. I tried adjusting the ratings window GPGRAdult but even that didn't work. I transferred movies to a flash drive and that DID work. I called customer service but that was uselesseven after 20 minutes. I also made sure I was playing NONBLUE RAY and WIDESCREEN but that wasn't a factor. The instructions were translated by someone who was English as a second languageand a lot of the instruction didn't make sense relative to installation in the manual.When installing and running wires try to unzip the factory seat cover because that makes a world of difference and install wires that way. You'll probably need some 1418 gauge wire in black and red as well as electrical tape and crimp connectors or wire nuts to make a clean install to your fuse box.The game that was included is a waste of time don't bother trying it. Be sure to close the headrest vinyl cover when you leave the vehicle to keep curious eyes at bay. The remote control is way too busy but it works fine.This Headrest did make a world of difference on a 1400 mile road trip with my 15 month old. In that respect I would strongly recommend it. In hind sight for myself I probably should have looked for a more recognizable brand in hopes of guaranteeing my success with playing DVD's.
