The install was a biatch!!! The monitors are a pair of soundstreams, they are actually pretty good quality. You can look at them in different angles and it still looks clear. Yes 7 inch seems to be the max you can put on.
I ran the wires along one of the headrest poles and then I tucked it under plastic guide hole and ran it down the seat. I wanted to run the wires in the pole but it was not hollow.
There is major modding to make those monitors fit!!! I have to take out the headrest frame and cut pieces off (the frame was plastic in my car)and then gut a whole lot of foam. At first I thought that I really messed up and I was just going to buy new headrest and return the monitors!!! it took about 6 hours to do the install (first time installing monitors ever).
My advice is if you want to install headrest monitors is to buy the savv unit. It really is not worth modifying the stocks. Its too much work and you only have a small margin of error or you have to buy headrests. I was just thankfull that I had the right tools and a friend to keep me calm when the monitors didnt seem to fit.
In the end my daughter is now enjoys watching her cartoons while go on long trips!! OKay I enjoy them also!!

It's worth the $100 and something you spend to make it easy!! If I had put the savv unit in It would have only taken 1-2 hours to put the headrest units in. But im a cheap ass so I try to do everything myself. You either fork over $$$ for easy and fast or you use a lot of elbow grease and a lot of time for cheap.
