Head rest monitors anyone?

I have an 06 G35 6MT sedan. I have the Kenwood navi/dvd. Anyway, my kiddos complain about having to lean into the middle to watch movies. I want to install some head rest monitors for them, but I want it to be a clean install. Any suggestions on brand??

Thanks!

Whiney kids these days.

Don't they already have video screens on their Nintendos, cell phones, PSPs, iPods and laptops?

Wrather - yup but it doesn't shut them up if they don't have their lil Nintendo DS's in hand! Then they try to steal my ipod. And I keep having to tell my 8 year old that he may NOT have a cell phone cause he's not gonna be texting his lil buddies.

MYG35 - do you have pics? How "black" are they? Not so black they don't match the leather right?

Bah, spoiled kids.

I had three games I could play when I was a kid.

**** off mom.
**** off dad.
**** off my brothers.

Pissing off dad usually led to the bonus round of "dodge the fist". I sucked at that game.

Good times.

Still need them! Gotta keep my 8 year old from chucking my ipod at my 4 year old and making her cry Ugh I wish the car was wider so they could be further apart!

Check the links stillmatic posted, cheapest way to do it by far.

The two-of-these combo w/headphones (so you don't have to listen to those Disney songs *AGAIN*) looks great:

i have searched before, but are there any other options that people for used specifically in coupes? The coupe headrest tilts forward, so was thinking about seeing if the 350Z ones fit or work better or possibly some ones like in the link above...

BTW....Wrathernaut...LMAO!!!! (post #6)

Just watch the headrest angle. I was going to put in the alpine monitors, but as soon as you drop below level on the screen, it washes out very fast.

Hahahaha sounds like my family trips as a child. And Dad always controlled the only thing we could entertain ourselves with, the radio!

Anyone have any experience with these headrest monitors? Or that website? Or any pics of them installed? I just want a nice clean look. I don't want it to look ghetto at all.

2K6 - you should sell your car and I'll take those off your hands! Exactly what I was looking for! Thank you! Is the only way to get them directly thru that company?
