Integrated lcd headrest monitors and xbox 360?

[benben84]

I have a road trip this September and would really like to have headrest monitors installed that would allow me to install my xbox 360 so the rear passengers can play games. I have read almost every post about dvd players and such but I haven't seen anything yet that would allow me to have my xbox hooked up. Also, I would like to keep it somewhat OEM looking and all I can find is vinyl/leather headrests, I would like to find black cloth if possible. I may just need to buy the leather ones and reupholster it with cloth.

This is the best thing I have seen:

You can play the XBox 360 with almost anything since you simply need an RCA input. Just use the composite video on the game console. If you are looking for something with component video or HDMI, I think you will be out of luck. The units you have linked are no different (better or worse) than any other LCD headrest solution.

Both of my Rosen headrest monitors have video / audio input jack ports
so you can do that. They also have 15 games hard loaded in the system and wireless game controllers. Not XBox level games however..

So one would think the ones you are looking at would also. If not look into the Rosen units

Where are the input jacks located? Remotely?

They are right on the face. Covered with black plug (on lower right in picture, one big wide plug) when not in use. As I do not have (wife won't allow) Xbox to be mounted mine are covered.

Can also be used to watch Video you recorded etc...

Do those Rosens tilt?

yes the headrest do tilt and adjust like the stockers.

They are black leather.

There is a central control unit. This allows 2 more monitor connections and currently allows my kids to watch the same movie in either monitor to be watched and listened to on both or to watch 2 different movies or play games.

I am still reviewing how best to install a screen up front for my wife where I am not distracted when driving.

You press on the center top of screen and the unit pops out (tilts back) revealing the slot for the dvd. You put it in or hit the eject button if one is in to eject it but you can also watch it this was too.

so the central control unit will allow me to hook up my 360 to both monitors without having the cables plugged into the rear of the headrest?? I think having a cable running to the screen will look cheesy.

I'm refering to the screen itself.
Can you adjust the LCD display angle?
I tilt my seat back and the angle of display may not be optimal to a person sitting behind me.
