DVD Player, LCD Headrest, Help!

I can't find any searches on this anymore, weird.

Anyways, I'm looking into a project of getting some LCD screens into my headrest, and some kind of DVD player. Please share your knowledge on what I need and how much it all costs. I know it can be a broad range, but any input would help.

I tried the Movies2Go package from Crutchfield in my 08. It is a universal system with 2 headrests with screens. One headrest has a built in DVD player that feeds video to the other screen. It was a pretty nice system for the cost. I ended up returning it because it did not have a video output that I could run to the NavTv adapter to get video up front. There are a few companies that make custom setups which have headrests with screens and players that are factory match. I think Best Buy carries the Myron and Davis setup for around $1k. The Movies2Go runs around $600. You can go up from $1k pretty quickly depending on what you want.

Hope that helps.

i have alpine 7inch monitors, dvd player is in the glove compartment. custom fitted into my headrests. thanks to Custom Sounds, they did a very good job; looks like it came stock.
i still need to get the dvdnav adapter to connect to the nav screen upfront.
