    Hi all,

    I'm looking for some information on headrest monitors for watching stuff in cars.
    I will be looking for a number of them and want to know what are the different options available?

    Saw these on pixmania http://www.pixmania.ie/ie/uk/1483122/art/innovate/2-headrests-with-dvd-divx.html#tech-specs but really i want to chat to someone who can advise me rather than just buying it off the interwebs!!

    Are there ones with a built in media player instead of a dvd? Do any of you work somewhere that sells these?

    Thanks in advance for any advice etc!!
    Bootz

    I think there was a thread on this before....questions were raised about the safety aspect of these monitors that weren't approved by the car manufacturer

    They can play movies from USB or SD cards, also come with games and 2 x game controllers, all for £240.

    Thanks Hellboy! :D

    Few questions still....
    1) Is there any way i can stop whoever is in the rear from removing the usb/dvd/sd card?
    2) Do they run off the car battery?

    Does anyone here work somewhere that sells these? PM me if you do as i want a good few of them for our company fleet.

    1. On the ones I linked you, the USB & SD are at the front, so no.
    2. Yes, all cables are supplied with them too.
