How to get screens in the visors

I'd like to put tv screens in my visors. Can I simply buy the screens and have an upholstery shop fix this or is it strictly a custom car audio job? How much am I looking at spending per visor. I have the DVD player and if the screens are possible, I'm going to buy the Video switch from Streeteffectz. Ideally, I'd like to have a Double DIN fit for the screen, but don't want to sacrifice that stealth look. Thanks for the help fellas.

IF you are looking to totally do the screen install yourself, we carry visor monitor kits with a shroud and all. Shoot us an email info@streeteffectz.com or call 732-388-7000 for more info

How do you fit screens in the headrests? Should you change visors?

TV Screens for the sun-visors, not the headrest.

LOL, I actually thought people did care about quality

So if I drop prices, and decrease quality, I'll get more business? Nah, can't be

But you are right I guess

Thanks for the compliment though

Yes, they are all original.....the visors have been hollowed out, and the headrests are original, I just added in more foam to take up the gap and recovered both.

streeteffectz- im very impressed at your setup, if you weren't in NJ i'd come into ur store and ask for an install myself, but b/c you do live so distant, i was wondering how much you guys charge fer headrest install? also, what kinda screens do you have?

Yeah, Post the Pix. Though I don't know how the colors would match up with yours being silver and mine being grey/blue.
