Okay, my second purchase. The lift kit and tires was the first but they haven't arrived yet.

Don't know if this is a dupe, but thought some of ya'll may be interested.

I ordered these below. I realize that they may or may not be the best quality but for (2) headrests, (2) screens and a DVD player, the entire bill was like 440 bucks.



Of course, it was on ebay, brand new from a seller called hummertools. Here's his link, just thought I'd pass this on.

ebay headrests

(for an extra 80 bucks, I got the wireless headsets too.)

Pyle certainly is not even on the radar of the top brands as far as quality but damn, for that price it is worth a try IMO.

I went with the visualogic. it cost about twice that for the headrest alone, but it was oem matched, the wires came through the posts, and the monitors were set in the headrest. One other advantage with the visualogic is the infared headphones so no need for the fm transmitter. Imo you get what you pay for.

You definitely get what you pay for. My point and I believe OrangeCrush's point is that these may not be great but they are cheap and worth a try. For less than 1/2 the normal cost, I would consider giving them a try as well. If cost is no object, I would have a 42" plasma dropping from the ceiling

Well, it may but to keep a 7 and an 11 y/o busy, I'm sure it'll work fine. Who the hell actually watches these things?

My thoughts exactly. I don't normally "cheap" out for anything I buy but this is suppose to keep the girls quiet for those long trips.

I watch mine! You should see the looks on the "Jeepers" faces. Went wheeling a couple of weeks ago and met up with a bunch of guys in CJ/TJ/YJ stuff. Wheeled with 'em for awhile and, when we stopped to make camp for the night, they actually got pissed! I inflated my air mattress with my onboard compressor, kicked back, and threw in a DVD. I was munching on snacks and watching a movie while they were still hauling tents and other gear off of their top racks. GOD I love my Hummer.

I really should have sent it back. I found out that the wire that connects the monitor is actually fed though a hole drilled in the bottom of the headrest instead of through the post that holds the headrest to the seat (like some that I've seen). So a wire comes out of the hole drilled in the headrest with a connector, then you have to run a wire up the back of the seat (thanks to this forum I was able to find someone that has done this before--good ole' coat hanger solution) but you have the cables attached with a huge unsightly connector between the headrest and the seat that has a tendency to short out.
I've driven from Chicago to Denver and back twice in the past year. I have two daughters (4 and 10yo). Both times I spent more time adjusting the damn headphone jacks because they are always shorting out. So I'm in the middle of Nebraska and my 4 year old says, "daddy, I can't hear it again." Ug...
Also, where did you mount your Pyle?--that DVD player looks like a 8 track player from the 70s-just because I like my truck big, doesn't mean I want my DVD player the same!
My good friend RedBullJunkie has Visualogic which I'll be getting soon. Then, each kid can watch their own movie and less wiring.
BTW- driving on I76 from the corner of Colorado to Denver is fun--100+mph--freeks the other drivers out to have an H2 pass them that fast.

All you need is a couch that attaches to the trailer hitch and your set.

It's a small couch but it's a start.
