Default Headrest Monitors...

Hello all...now that winter has shown it's ugly face, i have out the car in the garage until another nice day comes up. While it's in the garage, i better do some mods while i wait for those nicer days...

Here i what i want to do...headrest monitors. I have an in-dash 6.5" Jensen and 2 7.8 Legacy visor monitors. I'm looking into getting black monitors for the headrests. What are some of you guys using and what sizes? Not sure how big i can go with them either. Any help would be appreciated. I couldn't find much on a thread search. Thanks

Those are the individual built -in control switches for things like volume, brightness, contrast, etc. There is a speaker for them as well but i have it running through the car speakers.

Your car is a jacker magnet.
I would be worried to drive anything with more than 2 screens haha
You should line some wire from the battery so if they try to grab it you...umm *cough*killthem*cough*.
