Rear Seat Entertainment?

[kpecks]

Looking to install rear seat entertainment options for the kiddos. Anyone install dual headrests or a drop down monitor from the ceiling?

We actually went the Apple iPad route. They make mounts for the back of the headrest and we just load up the iPad with movies before a trip.

I'll second this. The iPad was a nice addition to traveling. If you travel a lot, the $25/month for WiFi in the truck allows my daughter to watch/stream whatever she would be able to at home as well.

Two of my kids can’t read in the truck. They get motion sickness...

No. They don’t. I actually care about my kids’ mental health.

Well, I’m not sure what year Ram started doing this but the iPad we have fits PERFECTLY and sits at the proper angle in the rear cup holders in between the front seats. I’m pretty certain the cut outs are for cups/mugs w handles but it straight up works perfectly! I also rigged up a flexible headrest solution I had laying around that can pivot and accommodate viewing from all the rear seats...

How solid is the headrest mount, does the screen shake a lot while driving? I have tried a few and they all seem to shake violently when going over bumps. If its pretty solid, do you mind sharing a link or more info on that setup?

Its solid and does not move much so long as it’s tight.
