  1. I have two kids who are COMPLETELY spoiled and get cranky when in a rental car with no TV. LOL

     

    So when I picked up my new 2010 Edge, I knew headrest monitors where a "must have".

     

    The problems I faced are:

     

    1. I wanted to avoid cutting into the factory headrests (lease)

    2. I had trouble matching the lt. stone leather interior

    3. The angle of the headrest meant I would need swivel monitors

     

    My solution: I bought two T-View black 7" monitors with the T-View mounting brackets.

     

    The mounting brackets securely mount to the headrest poles and allow the monitor to stand alone at the correct viewing angle while front passengers can adjust the headrest any way they like.

     

    I have not yet installed them, and am still wondering how I can hide the wire. I will try to post pics after finished.

     

    It is a good (inexpensive) alternative if you lease or don't want to permanently modify your edge.

     

    Here are the links to the place I got the best price on the monitors which include the brackets:

     

    Monitors with headrest mounting kits $83.95 each:

    I have no affiliation with them, but they seem to have reasonable prices.

     

    Keep in mind you still need a DVD PLAYER. These are just monitors.

     

    I am installing a Kenwood DNX6960 over the weekend, will let you know how that turns out as well.

     

    NOTE: I have T-View monitors in my wife's minivan and they work flawlessly. Very happy with them.
