Default Anyone got photos of a classic Impreza with monitors fitted in the rear headrests?

Hello all, I'm in the process of getting some TV monitors for the back of my classic Impreza.

Thing is I'm certain that I'm not going to be able to fit 7'' monitors, let alone anyting bigger, in the back of the headrests as they are too small.

Has anyone ever fitted monitors in the back hedrests? is there a certain type or front seat in the classic range that will allow them to be fitted? RB5, 22B, STI, etc...

If not, I guess I'll go with the singel roof mounted item.

I doubt you will find any seats from the sti range that will have the headrest that will support any monitors.
The only seats that I have seen which had a headrest was a uk Mccrae car.
Not sure of the headrest size but the seat itself was a completely different to the standard stuff. That was some years ago & have not seen any since?

Your other option could be to use the 2 front screen sunvisor's (flap down).

I dont have any monitors in my car?
The monitors in the link belong to a another sn member who I just happen to remember.

From what I can gather he paid £100 each for the monitors 8"

Right, I've just fitted some STi newage seats into my car.

Has anyone ever fitted monitors into this type of seat?

The bit at the top seems alittle bigger than the standard classic seats.

i`ve fitted monitors (7") into EVO 7 recaros, looked ok but IMO not something i`d have in my own car, as the seats arent really the best design for screens being one piece backs etc.

iirc the material on the impreza seats is also glued to the foam. again making the job more difficult.
