      Am thinking of putting a flipdown monitor in my 03 ram 4door and was wondering about the cable route.  Is it hard to run the wires?  Where do you run them? Thanks for your time.......

      To do it right, you really need to drop the headliner...it can be done without, but its just better to be able to secure the wires and route them w/o any interference. Personally I would grab power from the steering column...and ground from a solid gound bolt under the dash..and run them together up the windshield piller and up to the roof, you can secure it to the roof with tape ( i use duct tape) and just route it away from mounting screws and etc. and to the hole where the screen will be mounted. of course you have to run the rca for the video source youll be using also.
