put the monitors in the back of the rear headrests and hook-up a camera in the rear bumper so the kid in the SRT can see the look on his face when you pull away in a chevy.

Just did this today... as soon as I read about it, I knew I wanted to. It looks so much cleaner now and I actually have some visibility now! Thanks for the tip

HAHAHA! you will now tho.. I never noticed them until I read this post... then I couldnt wait to take em out...


BTW... didn't need a hammer or a mallet. Just unbolted, pulled the head rests straight forward and then just gave it a bump with my hand and out they popped.

........If I remember correctly, when brakes are applied, your body goes forward......so if you slam on the brakes they necks won't snap...you have to be going really fast in reverse and come to a complete stop on a dime for this to happen correctly, or just get rear ended by someone in an escalade on 26"s!

Mine came without the headrests from the dealer. After my first oil change I found the headrests in my trunk with the brackets. I think they forgot to put them on, lol.

If the headrests were so important, why aren't there any for the middle?
