Default Rear Entertainment Headrest Covers?

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows where I can find some headrest covers for my RX330? I drive it EVERYWHERE and I have a rear entertainment system that I want to "hide" from the "public eye" when its' parked. Anyone?!?!

is your rear system a factory system that drops down from the roof - or do you have an aftermarket with the screens in the headrests?

It's the aftermarket headrest. I'm looking for something that can blend in with my light gray interior.
Thanks.

Can you tell us about the aftermarket headrest screens you got for the RX330? You did mean the new RX330 right?

How's the fit and finish, the leather, screen, integration to the DVD player etc? Is there a link with more info on it?

It looks pretty good! I just wish that they put the DVD player in the armrest in the backseat, so that this could be hidden. They put it under the passenger seat. The leather is good, except that there is a lot of switches involved because I wanted the 2 screens to play 2 different things (ex. Tv tuner or a movie or the PS2.) It's really nice! I didn't want to get done by lexus b/c it cost way too much for an aftermarket option. I don't have pix, but I'll let you know when I do post them up.

Does anyone have the Lexus DVD setup?

Are the headrest screens the same ones they use in the RX300? What's the make? Who installed it? Is there a company web site with the info? How big are the screens? What did the aftermarket setup cost?

I think the headrest screens are a much better idea that the overhead flip down screen. Each passenger has their own screen (which is closer) and they don't have to crane their necks. The interior isn't cluttered by the overhead screen unit. You can also opt to have different inputs into each screen. It's more like being on an airplane.

I got it from one of those stereo and speaker companies. I had a friend pick the whole system out since he knew what the best was. I'll ask him. I know it's a 5.8 inches screen. With just the Dvd player and the screens alone, I got a hook up for $650 with tax and installation. I also added a tv tuner for several stations. Each of the monitors play something different or can play the same thing (like the same movie.) With all this I got it for $1000. It's a good deal too.

I totally agree with you on the flip monitors. My parents had one installed and it blocks the whole view of the mirror (which is bad in case if your speeding
