Default Headrest Monitors

I am looking at adding headrest monitors to my 2010 Lariat F150 for the rear passengers. I know there are a couple companies that make nice replacement headrests, but I was curious if anyone had put LCD screens (like the Alpine PKG-M780) is their truck? How do they look? Any Pics? How did you wire them up to Power Source? Thanks.

Unless they tilt out from the top the angle of the head rest looks off big time. For me I think I would rather have 1 bigger overhead monitor hanging off the middle of the roof than the head rest. Do replacement head rests have a different angle to them?

Replacement headrest are flat, but I've heard of people putting them in the existing headrest, just haven't seen the pics.

I would entertain the thought of an overhead DVD but I have the sunroof so I don't know that it would work....any input on that would be appreciated as well. Thanks.

i have the sunroof/moonroof or whatever as well, i dont think an overhead one would be feasable.

I wouldn't mind putting some in mine as well...

I routinely pick up my 10 month old nephew, and he's at that age where he's big enough to face forward, and he's get's board really fast when there's nothing to look at, lol

Autologic is the brand I will use. They DO tilt up or down and they can work independently of each other. They have 7" and 9" in your factory leather. So you don't have to cut the factory headrest. I am also getting DVD (or TV) -in-motion. This will allow me to change navigation options while driving or watch a movie/TV. I do not have it installed yet. But I will put pictures up as soon as I do. The monitors are $1400-1700. The DVD-in-motion is another $500-700. Hopefully that helps. They are the best that I have seen so far because the directly match your interior.
