    850 Headrest TV screen?

    Hi all,

    I'd like to fit a TV screen into the headrest of my '96 850R, for my little lad.

    Can this be done? Is there anything available that's a straight fit or do you have get them specially fitted?

    Thanks in advance.

    i used to have headrest screens in BT. My bro fitted them for me (was his trade), but is quite easy to do. The problem we had was there is quite a thick bar running across the headrest which restricts how deep you can go into the headrest

    You can get ones that hang from the head rest, with the dvd/dtv unit under the seat etc. Makes it less pinch-able when it's removable
