Default new screens

well, i just shelled out some money for some nice screens today...
pioneer p6500dvd and a provision 10" dropdown screen

not even 6.5" screens fit in the headrests and the 5.6" looked like ***, plus i think headrests are kinda played since everybody has em.. so i got a big dropdown screen

Is the one on the console a player+screen? Nice idea on the dropdown... If I ever get some stuff like that, I'm doing the dropdown one...

Look at Ben Stiller... What movie was that again??

Definitely can't go wrong with the Pioneer player and screen, and the 10" dropdown is a sweet addition to your ride.

I'd say your ES is coming along to be one of the best looking ones around CL

It does look great.. But I will get chastised for saying this.. But whats the point?.. I know it looks great and all. But unless you have kids, and or do alot of driving, I cant see why you would need to have a television in the rear of the car that if you are a single person. No one will watch. If so, rarely?.. One in the front.. No problems. But the back, well it looks like it is just for show. And if its just for show.. Why? Thats what I cant understand... I have a kid, and well, we wouldnt do enough driving to even get through the trailers at the start of a DVD to even warrent putting in a system.. If we need to go somewhere that is a decent distance. We fly...

I am not saying this as a beef up.. But I just find that we can go a little too far in order to get the wow factor.. I simply feel that in the back it looks out of place, and well not meant to be there?.. Just my though...

HB's car is a show car... That's why he has those screens... Also, so he can showoff, like I would if I had them.
