PMD-103X | 10.1-Inch Wide Ceiling Mount Monitor with Built-in DVD, USB/SD & MHL

Power Acoustik PMD‑103X: 10.3″ Ceiling-Mount DVD Monitor with HDMI, IR Audio, and Dome Light Integration

The Power Acoustik PMD‑103X is a vehicle ceiling-mount entertainment system designed for reliable playback, multiple input support, and clean OEM-style integration. Equipped with a 10.3-inch flip-down widescreen display, this system replaces your vehicle’s dome light while adding a versatile overhead monitor capable of playing DVD, USB, SD, and HDMI content.

Built-in DVD Drive and Media Compatibility

This unit features a car-spec DVD transport, engineered to withstand extreme temperatures in the cabin. Compatible formats include DVD-R/RW, MP3, and 720p MP4, ensuring reliable disc-based playback across multiple content types. Additionally, the PMD-103X supports USB and SD inputs of up to 32GB, allowing for video and audio playback without the need for external players.

HDMI Input and Smartphone Mirroring via MHL

With the MHL MobileLink HDMI input, users can mirror their smartphone or tablet display directly onto the overhead monitor. This feature is ideal for screen-casting navigation apps, streaming platforms, or personal media libraries, all of which are displayed clearly on the flip-down panel. (MHL HDMI cable sold separately.)

Wireless Audio Options for Flexible Listening

Two onboard audio transmission systems expand compatibility:

• A dual-channel IR transmitter for use with wireless headphones like the HP‑11S
• An 8-channel FM transmitter that lets you broadcast the audio to your vehicle’s FM radio, allowing passengers to hear the audio through factory or aftermarket speakers.

These options give users control over how passengers consume content—either through personal headphones or shared cabin sound.

RCA AV Integration for System Expansion

Rear-seat entertainment systems often require flexible audio/video routing. The PMD‑103X includes:

• RCA & 3.5mm AV inputs for connecting external devices like gaming consoles or media players
• RCA AV outputs to daisy-chain additional monitors in multi-screen setups

This flexibility makes it an ideal solution for large vehicles such as SUVs, vans, or limousines where multiple viewing zones are common.

OEM-Style Fit with Interior Matching Skins

Installation is streamlined with a universal dome-light replacement mount, eliminating the need for cutting or reconfiguring headliners. The monitor includes interchangeable trim bezels in black, beige, and grey, allowing it to visually blend with most OEM interiors.

The included bright white LED dome light can be triggered by standard vehicle wiring, maintaining lighting functionality while upgrading the headliner.
