I would imagine you have audio and video inputs, just plug the rca's into one of the inputs and you should be ready to go. You are also going to need an inverter for power of course.

You should get an extension cable that goes from the RCA jacks (probabaly on the back of the head unit) and hangs into the passenger footwell. You can always figure ways to make this look good, like wind up chord or have it go thru the glovebox, etc.

justgo's right about needing the converter. You can also make this pretty cool by tucking the invertor behind the dash and installing an actual outlet somewhere I actually want to do that, it'd be bad azz

I would be leary about installing a power inverter inside the dash they tend to create a lot of interfierence in your RCA signals. Under the passenger seat would be a good place .. as long as its far enough away from the foam padding to not burn it when it gets hot. also if you plan to install the inverter somewhere and locate the outlet elseware, I would install the inverter inside the trunk and run a shielded MC or AC cable to the location of the outlet(s)

Yes you can run the inverter of the battery direct you'll have to run some wires. the inverter just runs off of any 12dc source.
