best setup i've seen so far on a G35 coupe was performed by Meatshackle (formerly TrentaCinque).... you might wanna shoot him a PM also. i've asked him questions in the past and he's been very helpful. i'm sure he'll post up in here also

Smile Headrest Monitors

I didn't like the viewing angle so I made some fiberglass enclosures then wrapped them in leather. Kinda bulky when viewed from the side but the basic round shape is still there.

Heres mine - yes its a coupe. The screens are 6.5 inch Farenhiets - LCD - and yes, the headrests were cut/modified to fit these screens. Love it!

I hope you're doing this for shows and points and etc? Otherwise the backseat in the coupes aren't the most comfy place to watch a movie with someone on road trips.
