well ive looked around and everything seems to complex with buttons ect or too think so have upholstered into my visors.. i just want something simple with a RCA video cable and a simple screen so i can put them in my visors and not be too thick.. anywhere know where i can get a good deal? ive checked around on ebay alot but it seems like most of the kits come with ugly new visors..
also wut size would i go for the visors im assuming 5.6?
well, if you put them in the visors they are jsut gonna have to be rehapolstered anyway so thickness isnt and issue......scotty b just finished putting screens in his visors...maybe he can shed soem light
I'd go with a 7" wide format screen, it fills out the visor nicely.

i had this done to my cav about 2 yrs ago. they are fahrenheit (i believe thats what they are) screens, both 5.6" they fit perfect in the visor and they dont stick out or anything when they got rewrapped. basically look stock. also when they are off its just a black screen and the cloth is wrapped right up to the screen so it looks like a mirror
The 6.5" ones in my visors are rather thick, im going to say I made the visors about 1/2 to 3/4 an inch thick by putting them in. Now I could have saved some depth by cutting more out but there was no real need to. They sit like stock against the roof and the thickness isnt to where you would notice it much. Mine dont have buttons so to get these wrapped again or fiberglassed shouldnt be to hard. I dont know the brand name monitors I have, Bryan maybe you can look on yours somewhere to see if there is a name or something so I don thave to take the visor apart.
A while back Bryan, me and a few other people were looking at these
Click here bro. I had come across someone selling basicly the same thing for alot cheaper so I jumped on that and got one for Bryan also. Its the same setup I have, really easy to work with since you can unplug the RCA and power wires. If its in your budget I would get 2 of those and take a day and modify your visors like I did. That site should have some 4" LCDs also and visors for them but if you want the stock look just modify yours.
The visors look like @!#$ right now held together with tape and glue, space with craft wood and such. Once I get the wrapped again I can send some pics your way. Ill try not to take too long on that. I hope that helps you a little more. Best thing to do is buy your screens, take a visor out and sit down for a little and go over ways you can put them in.
Just wana add something els. I got an amp for my screens that has 2 inputs and like 6 outputs. You might not need one but if you ever want to add more screens in the car its handy to have. They shouldnt be more then like 20 bucks at radio shack.
