the headrests are just big enough to fit the displays in them and you can easily fit the dvd player under the seats... i have the in dash and i like it a lot but i think i might do the headrest monitors as well

It's illegal for an in-dash DVD player to show video while a vehicle's parking brake is disengaged (they put a wire to the brake switch to determine when it is or isn't). Hence, most in-dash units have a "multi-zone" control. You can have an in-dash DVD player, run the outputs to headrest monitors, and your kid can watch while you drive, nothing will display on your screen.

Having already had an in-dash DVD player stolen from my Versa, however, I'm going to reccommend Tyler's method. The DVD player will be hidden, and there will be less damage to your car if it IS stolen.

May just want to look into the portable DVD systems that can attach/hang onto the headrest. That way you can remove them from the car when not needed and have less risk of a break-in.

That's what we do. We can move it from car to car or from the second to the third row of seats in our Rendezvous. And leave it locked up at home most of the time.
