What kind of video setup?

I'm in need of ideas or pics of what you did or are planning to do...

I'm thinking of getting Icon-TV headrest monitors, but not sure where to put the player. I want it accessible while driving.

Also, isn't there a company that replaces the headrests with screens already built in? Vizualogic do this for mercs?

I thought about converting the mcs but think that the kids sitting windowside won't see so well.

I need something for the kids on those long trips.
Thanks

Vizualogic should have your headrest as an option. They have some with DVD's built into the headrest so you do not have to mount it on the floor and they make a very small DVD player that can be mounted pretty much anywhere. I would check their site out or swing by a Tweeter store.

I did it!

Thanks for your tip Barada I went ahead and got 2 head rest monitors installed with a small dvd player located in the glove box. I went Icon TV (my husband has those screens in his truck and he likes them...so I went with them too) although Vizualogic looked really good to me too!!. Overall, I'm really happy with the result. I had the system installed in one day and the kids are really happy too!! I'll take some pics and post them up.
