If you watch Circuit City and Best Buy, they often run specials on the overhead DVD systems. Which usually includes FREE installation. And they install at the same place the OEM overhead DVD players are installed. A very nice system from them runs in the neighborhood of $600 to $700.

Additionally, has anybody ever installed a double-din stereo in an Excursion?

Sorry I wasn't clear....
In the little picture of the tan interior you posted above, where you have the DVD mounted, I have air-cond. controls. It's a pod with three ***** for the rear AC.

(I think that link will work)
That picture provides an interesting solution....
Thanks again,

I have the stock dvd and have not used it more than once....
IF I were going to do it I most certainly would do after-market -
bigger screens - more options - cheaper price - -better technology - free installs....
but other than that

That's what I did when I installed my overhead dvd system.
