Things You’ll Need:
Step1
Determine what screen size you want. Screens range from 3 to 7 inches. The bigger the screen, the more you’ll pay.

Choose your accessories. Most car theater systems are compatible with video games, TV tuners and antennas, CD and MP3 players, multiple DVD changers and navigation systems.
