anyone know about headrest monitors

im interested in installing headrest monitors. i found a pair of some decent tft monitors that go for like $299 on ebay and even in the stores. some also come with the dvd player. they also have that attachment where you dont have to embed the monitor into the headrest. i was wondering if anyone has experience with these. i def want to install them into the headrest for a more clean look instead of having brackets sticking out. are they worth it?

No. For headrests, spend about a $100 a piece.

Yeah, you shouldn't have to spend more than 100 for a good 7" TFT monitor, with the headrest shroud. Make sure its TFT, and test it before you install it. If the picture sucks, return it.

Xenarc makes headrest shrouds for its monitors.
Or at least someone does. They're available from here for $10.
