'07 Entourage went with the Insignia product by bowulf

Yes. I have the same vehicle and response to the price of the Premium Entertainment package. I bought the Insignia 10.2" model that was onsale at BestBuy 2 weeks ago. It fit well into the area in front of the rear door lights. My only regret is not having external AV hookups for aux video devices (like PlayStations) and somewhat poor FM Transmitter reception in this model. Best Buy also warranties their labor for the lifetime of the product.

Good to know since that is the exact model we've been looking at. I had a couple of questions based on your experience with the unit.
 
Do you find the screen brightness sufficient for daytime viewing?
Do the IR headphones work OK and are there suitable for a child's head? (my daughter is only 2yrs)
Any issues with head room in the second row? I've read the Sedona's factory unit is bad with this.
How much of the driver's rear view is blocked during viewing?
 
Thanks for the input. I've been struggling with this decision for weeks.

The picture and brightness is great from all viewing angles. I have absolutely no problems with video of this unit.
 
The IR headphones are definitely adult sized, but work fine on my kids (ages 12,9,8,8). My feeling though is that they may be too large for a 2 year old.
 
Second row are absolutely not affected by the placement of the LCD screen. As for how much of your rear view is blocked, you have mirrors and can turn your head, right? Seriously it blocks most of it when it down. We just got back from a 800 mile road trip, and it was somewhat annoying being blocked. Given the alternative though (a smaller screen or mounted to the headsets), I still think I made the right choice.

We bought two 9" screens for $250 at Sams Club. You can play 2 separate movies, or show the same one on both screens.
 
Just took them on a 600 mile trip, and they worked great for a 3 and 5 year old.
 
Comes with plug-ins for 110 or 12V, and a carrying case.

I need some help. I've been in contact with Hyundai Motors for over 2 months and can not get a reply re: the reason the entourage does not come with a factory installed tow package. I suspect there may be a problem. Does anyone know anything about this?

Not sure exactly what you mean to be included in a tow package but there is a dealer installed hitch in the acessory book. People on other Entourage / Sedona forums have found widely varying prices on it though (150+ dollar differences)
 
I want one to cary a hitch mounted bike rack but Hyundai doesn't make a bike rack for this van so I waiting till I see something aftermarket before I invest in the Hitch.

Update... I am starting to see aftermarket options on ebay. Draw-Tite has a hitch and wire set for the Entourage. I think I will wait till spring. Hopefully the prices go down a bit as the supply and demand evens out with a new model.

Full Front End Mask by pelican19

I just installed the Full Front End Mask on my 07 Entourage SE. It looks awesome. I do quite a bit of Highway driving and the bug guard did not move me enough to get it so the dealer recommended the Bra. For a $100 you cant get hurt. Visit my carspace page for a pic of it if your interested.
 
Bugs and paint chips be gone!
