Most in-car video systems, dvd players, and vcr don't have the ability to watch regular television on them. So you have to buy an additional "tv tuner" to be able to watch regular television.

Most come with antennas, they usually go on the back window or side windows in suvs. They just supply an output so yes, all you do is plug it in to the monitor.
