No, I used to have them installed in my 98 Durango, however I sold it to make money for the down payment on my ML. They are in excellent condition, used for about 3 months. All wires are included, I don't know where you live, however the private audio places around me charge about 50 per headrest to install, and circuit city does it for 85. I live in NY by the way.

Until you both have over 9 tv's in your car, shut the f**k up. They are PLASMA TV"S. you know, the type that you can get in 42" for over $10,000. So learn specs on equipment before you coment.

Different Models

My buddy has the ICONTV MT6800, I think his is 6.8. He bought his for like $350 a piece new. Icon is a high rated brand and a little pricey which is why most places don't carry it. Just some input........

No offense, but that statement makes no sense. I suppose you'll tell me that all 20's are the same, too? This is the phrase that confused me, "what it can do..." Isn't that a broadstroked comment that applies to all consumer goods? For example, "A Civic and a Modena are the same, except for what they can do." Now that I think about it, this doesn't make much sense either, "just the name..." Honda vs. Ferrari...'nuff said.

Also, I agree with those that question the overall tone of some of your responses. This guy is just trying to sell his headrest monitors...if you don't want them, don't buy them.

In addition, I will add that the price may be a bit high. I found them with a quick google search for $319 apiece new.

They're not plasma... they are LCD, the guy has no idea what he was selling.

And, the reason LCD screens are pretty much all the same is, because the actual LCDs are sourced from only a few places. All the 7" TFT screens come from one manufacturer. The 7.2" screens also come from another manufacturer, but aren't really TFT. And so on.

Rims come from all different manufacturers (well, a handful) so a lot actually are different. But when you compare many from the same actual manufacturer (like Ronal once made rims for AMG, Carlsson, Brabus, and so on), then they tend to be more alike.

Youngin? Good one.

Once again, you prove my point. The things you say are all true. However, I was merely pointing out that those things you say are things that drive consumer purchases. Put simply, some items are more expensive than others because of ADDED FEATURES and QUALITY, and most importantly, MARKET DEMAND. If you feel like you've proven something because you simply rehashed some potential differences in these products, then more power to you. However, you should know that all you really did was prove my point further. If you can't understand that, then maybe you should re-read this thread. If that doesn't help, try some classes on manufacturing, marketing, merchandising, branding, and international commerce and economics.

As for the LCDs having the same manufacturers...sure, you're probably right. However, this can be said for a lot of things we buy everyday.

Like I said before, upon further inspection, it seems that the screens are a bit overpriced as used goods. However, I found humor in the direction the thread was going.

Respond if you wish, but you should know that this, in my opinion, is a futile argument. I'm out. I can tell by the tone of your posts that you think you are right. I know that nothing I say will change your point of view. Besides, arguing via message boards is juvenile, so if it makes you feel better, then proceed.

WOW, look at all these people talking about my TV's.

They are sold though, $385.00 to a Toyota Sequia

Thanks for all the negativity though. Appreciate it.

By the way, let me know when those square ones come in 32" so I can get them.
