They're all junk.....well kidding aside it is basically a crap shoot with overheads. I speak from experience as I do hundreds of these a year. For the most part I  find they all do what they are intended to do..of course the more expensive "name brand" systems might do it a little better.

I have yet to find a brand yet that is 100% reliable but for the most part to better help you I would say if you buy the sound storm (or any other system) make sure it is from a reputable company that will back it's products and allow you to return them if they prove to be unreliable as I find that is the most important thing to the "average" purchaser of overheads (soccer mom's trying to keep the animals occupied while they drive).

As far as install I find ALL overheads with built in DVD's cake to install...basically power, ground and possibly an RF mod if the unit does not come with a wireless but most do these days. If the wireless performance is poor and a mod is not available or too difficult/expensive etc...I find extending the ant. wire on the dvd close to the AM/FM ANTENNA (not the head unit) as possible will help greatly.

Good Luck
