If you plan on doing the headrest mounts on your own consider headrest kits. This would ease your pain of working with the leather and look more professional. They have generic mounts, like those available from PartsExpress.com, but won't fit the larger 7" LCDs. Manufacture Nesavision has NRM-6401 a 6.4" screen with headrest mount kit that might work. Same with Acelle Electronics although their headrest kit have up/down swivel adjustment and are for smaller sized LCD's.

The kit I like the best is Clarion's HRM-100 with snap in 7" VMA-7191 monitors. The angle of this monitor mount helps correct the angled seat back for better viewing. The drawback is they protrude from the headrest a good amount. As for the color they are a darker brown (although the pictures appears grey), but could be wood grain coated to match by a special service. These mounts come with a template to help you cut out the opening and tie wraps to secure the housing to the bars already in the headrest.

If you have the headrest monitors done by pro shop they could probably fit in many different LCD's.
