Here are a few notes regarding my install, in the event any of it can be use to you:
1) For power, buy some wire and fish it down and around the driver door, under the kick-plate and then under the dash where your inside cabin fuses are. Go to an automotive store and buy an "Add-a-Fuse" or "Add-a-Circuit." These replace one of your existing fuse outlets and splits it. One fuse runs the circuit that was existing (heater in my case), and the other runs the new circuit (my new Pyle DVD player). The hardest part was getting the wire around the airbags without obstructing their path.
2) The mounting bracket ended up being my biggest headache. I had to fabricate two cross-braces for the Pyle mounting bracket to screw to. I'm not a fabricator, so with a saw, grinder, drill and measuring tape, I finally got it all done. It's solid and I was able to mount the DVD player to the roof cross beams that were already there for the Toyota Rear Audio. We have a sunroof in the van, so care was given not to obstruct the path.
3) I did not use the a/v outputs that came with the unit, and so they were tucked up inside the unit. I did use the a/v inputs and ran a secondary line down the sidewall to an a/v jack where our kids can plug in their old XBox. I also chose at this time not to wire the door lights. I did run a wire to an existing dome light, but right now am choosing not to connect it. I have white LED lights throughout the van, and don't need two more bright white lights to come on when the doors open. I did however wire the Pyle lights to the hot/ground leads and now those lights can be turned on independently of the van doors.
4) The manual is horrible. Out of a 17-page manual, only one page is devoted to installation. And the grammar is horrible. For example: "And install special screws to avoid loose." It was of little use.
5) We purchased four of the XO wireless IR headphones. The volume was not loud enough even just sitting in the driveway. We'll be exchanging those and buying some better ones that received higher reviews.
Overall, the screen is bright and we look forward to our first road-trip with it.
********* EDITED 9/12/2013 *************
After trying two different style/model wireless headphones, along with a wired headphone, the sound volume is terribly low (and this is parked in my garage!). I called Pyle tech support and they said this is a common complaint with this model. What!? They said they are working on the technology and hope to have newer models soon with higher volume output. I'm downgrading this product review to a 1-star and will attempt to return it to Amazon. Low volume output is unacceptable in a product like this.
********* EDITED 10/16/2013 *************
Received a replacement unit from Amazon. Tried the new unit in the van and had exactly the same results with sound volume - it was too low to audibly hear from any source - IR headphones, on-board speakers or from the headphone jack. I called the manufacturer a second time and they said to ship the item to them (at my cost) and they would look at the internals of the unit (at my cost) to see if they could fix it. No thanks! Two units both performing with low audio and no viable support from manufacturer equals a unit that should never be purchased in my opinion. Both units have been sent back to Amazon and I've ordered a Tview in hopes we can hear the audio. BTW, Amazon has been great in regards to shipping and returns.
I would recommend this product if you can set up the sound the way I did or if Wireless headphones have a volume control to get more sound out of them. My wired headphone did not have an option to increase the volume above what the products highest setting already was.

L ECRAN EST PARFAIT POUR 3 PERSONNES
COLIS RECU EN TEMP ET EN HEURE DANS UN EMBALLAGE SOIGNE
Points forts :
Ecran 13,3" assez grand pour être lu du troisième rang de siège.
Lecture de DVD correcte (pas de plantage)
Lecture de film au format AVI via l'USB testée et OK
Menu assez bien organisé et intuitif.
Menu système disponible en français
Touches du plafonnier a système tactile
Télécommande complète
Points faibles :
Notice en Anglais et incomplète... digne des années 70, une demi page représentant le schéma de connexion et d'installation.
Sortie audio sensible aux parasites créés par alternateur... nécessite un filtre sur l'alimentation si utilisation du son vers auto-radio.
Dans l'ensemble bon produit mais nécessite quelques tracasseries pour l'installation et le raccordement. Une notice seulement en anglais et très light n'aiderons pas et je pense qu'un garagiste pester autant que moi.
Et il pourrait y avoir un casque infrarouge compris dans le lot ??????
