Hi,

I'm out in the US this week and have seen a couple of good deals on 6.2 and 7" headrest monitors, usual story of $=? conversions back home. Unfortunately not in a position to measure the headrests on my 2005 E61 with M-sport seats to see what size monitor I could fit in there.

So, could someone confirm what size I could fit and if you have done this yourself is it difficult enough to leave to a professional installer?

Thanks

Carlo

Not sure what type you are going with but Invision makes a very nice headrest monitor that is easy enough for you to install yourself. Can get it for you for around 1695.00 US. They are dual monitors with DVD player in the headrest so kids can watch 2 different movies.

Thanks Jake,

I took a risk and got a pair of 6.2" widescreens which look like they will just fit in, will post pics as soon as I've done the install.
