I know how to hhok up power to my monitors and to my ps2 but my question is how do i hook 2 monitors to my ps2 and into my head unit so that when i play ps2 or watch a dvd on it, it will play on bith monitors?  Any info would work.  I have two legacy 7" monitors and ps2 and a crapy ass jensen head unit for now, if you need to know that.  Thanx for any info on this.

All that you need to do for this is to get a rca y adapter from Radio Shack. Run the video signal into the y adapter from the playstation and the feed each monitor from the two outputs you created with the y adapter. Good luck with the install. brian

For the audio you could use a fm modulator. Real easy to hook up, power, ground, and rca input.

To do this properly and with less video distortion and loss of quality, use an audio/video switcher.

Is there any other way to get the sound to the head unit other than an fm modulator?  i cant just hook the audio rcas from the ps to one of my 3 sets of pre-out?

No. The pre-outs are exactly that, outs, you cannot feed audio in through them.
