Default trying to build a parts list

guys I am trying to figure out what brands of LCD monitors are good quality.........I am looking at 7.2-9 inches and they are going inthe back of the car or headrests.......if there is a good brand of headrest monitor that would be cool as well.......not concerned about cost too much.......not rich but do not like cheap stuff either.

I will be doing a D3 in the dash next year as well,but want to have a couple for the rear for fun..........

My 15" monitor on the hatch of my car is from Sona Vision and they are great! They do all kinds of monitors and I think they're great quality for a great price.

You can visit their website at www.sonaelectronics.com

^ Try to keep the brands together as well to, help w/ show points and easier to get tech support on sometimes (if necessary). Always liked Alpine (little spendy sometimes though), Panasonic, Kenwood, and Sony. Had to go wrong w/ good brands right? Just be careful at some of the "big sales" they sell seconds or refurbished items sometimes....

I have Alpine in the rear in my box and they work great!

Mo has the D2 in his tC and I really like the Pioneer brands.

I second what Eric says...try to keep brands together if you start to add more than a couple pieces of ICE.

Alpine makes a set that comes with 2 monitors and an av controller for around 550 they are 7" and the viewing quality is great!

Sonic electronix, that's where I got mine. I have ordered a lot of stereo equipment from these guys and have never had a problem.
