People are still calling these no-name (check the site) but they are Panasonic screens. Last time I checked Panasonic was a good brand and definitely worth $329 for 2. I just wish they made them in black cloth taht would match our interiors.

Cool man! Can't wait to see them. I'm interested in buying them too cause I'm getting black leather anyway and these will help and save a lot!

All screens are definately not created equal. If you start looking at different screens that are playing the same thing from the same source you will see a huge difference in picture quality. I truly realized this when I installed some off brand screens in a friends van - these things had the worst picture I have ever seen! I am not saying yours are bad - I am just saying that screen quality is definately a "you get what you pay for" type situation.

yea i get what your saying but i got good quality for what i paid for,wait till u see the screens,i saw them on with my own two eye's and another guy from my car club,i just don't have a digital camera,that's the only reason they are not up yet,this all started when someone else posted this about MP3 PLAYER STORE,about the deal about the headrest,i checked out the price and jumped on it,for $329.00 i couldn't lose it's worth it just for the headrest,as soon as i bought them everybody had opinions about them,and these were the people just going by hear say i am the one that saw them on and playing a movie ,i think they look just as good as the higher priced names,so why don't you dig in your pocket or go ask mommy for some money and try them out for yourself,,,,,enough on this subject already,,and for all u negative people that posted negative s--t about this post without even trying the product your self

Quick question griecos, can you tell me what all the controls on the monitor themselves are? I can't quite make them out in your pic or on the website. Do these have an IR headphone option or even a headphone jack on the monitor themselves? They only complaint I have about the monitors and this is a small complaint, the writing on the monitor is much more noticeable in your pics than on the website. Maybe it was just the flash though.

Another question: What is involved in getting the video cables run out of the seat? Where do they come out and did you have to take anything apart?

dude that was the easiest part ,the day before the install ,i went outside to see what the headrest looked like if the holes matched up,and i wanted to see if the wire fit through like the guy from the web store said and they went right through,so i put my hand inside the seat and felt the wire from the headrest tv and i just pulled it down and out from under the seat no tools ,and no thought,very easy,i saved my installer 2 mins of work by doing that part myself.I never thought it would be so easy,he just ran the wires under the middle console and up the dash .

Naw man, forget cloth. Go out and get that hot leather-wrapped edition that doesn't match anything else in the car, including the three back seat headrests.
