go to caraudio deals.com they have several audio/video packages you can either do in the front 2 sun visor monitors or a flip out from the dash and in the rear a flip down monitor or 2 headrest monitors, (i did the 2 headrest monitors cause the flip down blocks the view out the back)
For a TV, you’ll need an inverter. It’s a device that converts 12 VDC to 120 VAC (house current). You will need to determine the power consumption of said TV and match that with the inverter.
In other words, if the TV requires 300 watts to run, then the inverter should be at least 350 watt (maybe even higher for other electrical devices you may want to run, ie. game console, etc.)
Just add up the watts of all devices you plan to run and go say 100 watts higher just in case.
You’ll also need an extra battery with an isolator to run the system with the engine off to save the "engine starting" battery from discharging.
For the audio, visit many audio shops to get ideas, advise and compare and decide.
