Hey Guys,
Somebody wants to sell me a TV Tuner with 2 Amplified Antennas, INSTALLED, for $463.00.
Is this a good deal? Are TV Tuners even worth it? Thanks!

I would get the DVD working 100% before jumping into TV stuff. Last I saw you had 2 monitors for the rear seats. Do you have a screen for the front yet? I would assume so, but I haven't seen it yet.

Jason,
I know where you live. Like how many stations do you think you can get clearly from your home with only a set of rabbit ears? Probably none of the major networks I bet. Unless you have a specific need, don't get a TV tuner.
If you want cable, make sure you have a big spool of RG6 in your trunk so you can drive long distances.
Satellite is possible, but you wouldn't like a dish on your roof would you?

It doens't cost much at all (unless you want it hooked up to your factory NAVI then you go with the above mentioned systems)

Mine is gonna run under the seat to the A/V brain box of my Clarion VRX-815 system. All in all, the Tuner is gonna be under there as well. For the antenna, I hear speaker wire works wonders! Cheap too! Just line some up under the carpet to the trunk lid then up along one of the C pillars up to the roof section and leave a tiny bit seeping out by the rear window (I'll have pics soon). All in all, tuner cost 30.00. Powered by inverter/ 12V source (same as my Xbox). Results soon to follow!
