I just bought a Saab 9-5 to replace my Saab 9000.  The 9000 had a DVD player with monitors in each headrest and the passenger visor.  I'd like a video system in the 9-5 as well, but it is much tougher.  I was thinking about installing a Flip-Down monitor in the rear armrest and hopefully reversing the image.  Is this possible on any flip units?  The Saab headrests are not condusive to monitors and I have a sunroof so an overhead is out.  I'm also considering a clamp for the headrest posts, but would like a more finished look.  Thanks.

i dont know about flip down monitors, but on my sunvisor screens, there is an option called mirror, that flips the image upside down.  but again, i dont know if they have that option on flip downs.

Sony makes a flip down monitor that comes with a dvd and a pair of wireless headphones it runs between 800 and 1000  it has a reverse button on it that would do what you are wanting...  i think..   i was thinking of putting it in my center console between my two front seats in my truck, just replacing the opening lid.

I remember seeing this on etronics.com. It's a motorized LCD made by Clarion. I thinks that's the type of screen you're looking for. If it is the type, I think having it motorized would be the best way to go.
