I believe JM Lexus is running a special on them right now. Check out the vendor marketplace page.

Lexus of Las Vegas sells those (Sewell's Price is better) and in person they don't look that bad; they play the DVD right in the unit, but they are bulky. If it were me, I would buy a set of factory head rests and go with some after-market monitors.....

So each screen has their own independent dvd player? Does that mean that you can't watch the same movie on two screens at the same time?

Either way...My understanding is that you can watch two different movies (elimiates fighting in the back seats, especially with RF Head Phones) or you can watch the same movie on both...that's what I was told (the fighting part was my own contribution)
