For those in UK interested in getting the headrest mount dvd solution as per the Innovatek from mp3playerstore, they can be had from here www.acesdvds.co.uk They're probably under a different brand name but I pretty sure they are the same system.
Cost a tad more but Saves all the hassle of importing from US.
I went for the roof mounted solution, just waiting for it to arrive.

Good find , but those are a tad wider .There is already 50 mm difference in the original one .I went with the ones from mp3player as its hard enough to loose 25 mm at each side

Where did you get yours in the end as I noticed in a earlier post you were put off by the shipping from mp3 player store.
Did you post a step by step install on you headrests.
Cheers

Thanks Wiggs
Just one couple more questions if you don`t mind.
Did you go for the first package that is $339.95 ?
And are you planning to connect your freeview up to them or just keep that in the front

This looks good too and maybe less work needed.
May I ask where you brought yours from.

Screen size 7" but they also do bigger sizes....but might be a bit tight between seats .....took power off centre console (as you can see in pic )
rear screens just linked up removable ones....works out a cheap option in car entertaiment...audio either headphones or surround sound via the aux plug
