Default Headrest Monitor Issue '08 Scion xB

I'm curious to see if anybody has put in Headrest monitors into an '08 Scion xB. With the Headrests having a slant to them, I have been looking into replacing the headrests with new head rest monitors.
So far I have not found a headrest replacement with monitors that fit into the holes. It seems that the spacing is off.

Has anybody done headrest monitors on their Scion besides buying the Toyota Brand ones?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I have not put a set in my car yet, but I have been looking around myself. There are universal ones at sonicelectronix that I have had my eyes on that say they are adjustable. Maybe try taking measurements of the width needed and call and ask the range of adjustment? Goodluck.

I went with the Vizualogic ones. They look pretty nice and a perfect match with the interior.

yeah whoever came up with the headrests for our cars needs to go jump off a cliff theres a lot of prefabbed headrests with tv's but good luck finding one in cloth they all come in leather , i suppose you could always recover those but then you may as well customise your own

I have the same issue with not liking the headrest. Will one from a 2006 Xb work?

Yes, I have, 7" aftermarket. Installed into the Stock headrests, and recovered them. Granted, this was a custom job, not plug and play by any means. But still doable
