Default back seat TV question

Just purchased a 2011 GC, it has the video option and sat radio..Does it come pre-equipped with the back seat kit? if not what is needed? I see some stuff for sale on ebay but maybe You guys can give me more of a direct answer of whats needed and cost..I may be able to install it myself if need be.

your van is not pre equipped for the 3rd seat tv. To install it, you would need the wiring harness from a van equipped with it, the tv and mounting and probably other unseen things. After you installed it, you would have to take it to a dealer and have the vehicle told it has it so it would work.

so you already have the 3rd seat tv? Again it isn't wired for it. Every system has it's own harness. There is a satellite tv module and a seperate antenna. And the vehicle would have to be told you added the module or it won't work.


this is the module



The funny part to me is the module is in the back of the van and the antenna is up front by the windshield

Can someone tell me where the tv module is on a 2008 Caravan?
