I own a 98 Ford Expendition EB, I plan on installing monitors in the headrests. I have never worked on seats without the adjustable headrests and just by feeling them, there's not a lot of cushion or support on the back side of the seats. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I' ve installed t.v.'s in a few Expeditions , and your rite there isn't alot of cushion , all i did was buy or customiz the housings for the monitors, they sell a two peice housing that works pretty good. all you have to do is screw in the back peice and slide in the monitor.

hay what different ways can the monitor shroud or casing be mounted in to the head rest. i heard of people using liquid nails and things like that. also anyone put them in a 2000 Infinity G20? what was the biggest size you can get in there and how did you secure them thanks

I think liquid nails would work good as long as there glued to the frame or customize a nice support to stick the shroud on , i've used 1/4" self tapping screws for the base, and velcrow for the monitors, and i've had no problems.
