Choosing Monitor Help

Need some help choosing a monitor. I do not have a CarPc setup yet but, am looking at that option in the future. I need a rear seat monitor. Basically a stand alone that accepts composite video and still has future upgrade for touch screen and vga. I made a bracket out of aluminum to mount the monitor to my headrest posts for rear seat viewing of a DVD player. I have a NavTv device running video to the navi screen up front. I would love something with built in ir transmitter for wireless or even wired headphones. Probably at least 7" screen. Anyone have any suggestions?

Try mp3car.com or iatft.com (good choice of RAW LCD monitors) also you may try looking at the Alpine PKG-M780 (dual 7" monitor package and both touch screen)

Thanks for the links. I am a member on mp3 and I posted over there as well. The Alpine screens are not touch screen but, a good option. I do not plan on flush mounting them in the headrests and I am not sure if they would work on the bracket I made. I am trying to decide if I want a monitor to run a CarPc or just a monitor. Finding something that works with wireless headphones is the trick. There are lots of add on ir transmitter systems but not many with built in transmitters.
