Thanks for the reply. I was wondering what kinda headrest is that. Is that the stock GS headrest, or you had to put something else. I have navagation on my lexus, so is it possible to put an extra dvd player and input into the screen? Help me please haha

Not the stock headrest, custom made from SAVV. Send your original headrest to them and they match material and seat stich patern, and yes you can bypass Nav with an external source such as an aftermarket DVD player.

take your car to where u bought your rims from...

713 Motoring/Custom Car Stereo...
I was going to get head rests in the screen...they do custom installations for your headrests which runs into the $5000 range since they use ur stock headrests and cut into those..
now if you want to just replace your headrests with aftermarket sets that already come placed w/ tv's its a hella cheaper price..i think for some 8'' screens + headrests + dvd player from myron and davis was quoted at $1500
myron and davis quality is
go check them out and talk to that mexican guy in the front counter..i forgot his name, but they have all those headrests and brands on display
goodluckbro

edit.....
u were asking about another dvd video source....if you get that installation you will be able to watch 2 different dvds in at the same time..
one thru the stock lexus one
and the second one being the added dvd player
also it comes with a video source so u can plug your xbox/ps2/cube..etc in..

Thanks for all the reply. I know that Custom Stereo can do all the stuff I want, but definitely cost alot of money. The thing I really want to do is watching dvd while I am driving, but at the same time having two more screens on the headrests. I understand that there is NO output from the factory dvd player, that is the reason why I might need a sepearte dvd player on the side. The question I have is that if I really have a sepearte dvd source, is it possible to input it to the factory Navagation screen and pulling two more on the headrests. Thanks again...

yes
custom car and stereo said they can just do that and have your factory dvd/navi run as the main and have those on the headrests

oh ya and having the dvd by pass done at custom car is $125

Here are old pics of my custom screens as they were being installed. they turned out awesome. My local stereo shop made custom molds from the oem headrests. they also kept them in case they did another gs. Let me know if you want me to snap "final product"photos or if you want info on the shop that can custom fit the screens to your oem headrests.
