How to mount a screen-only dvd to the headrest in the car?

by badolina Jun 20, 2009 12:42PM PDT

Hi,
We are about to embark on a cross-country trip, and just bought the Philips DCP951 for our daughter.
The dvd is part of the screen itself (access from the back). My question is simple: how can I mount it to the headrest? Without it, it is not clear to me how she can watch it... and this dvd has no "base".

Thanks!

the DCP951 cannot open, unless I break it really hard...

Until I find this in a store to try out I can only use their site to see how it works.

Thanks Bob for looking into it. I already have the dvd, and there is no way it opens up. I wonder how why Philips refer to it, though they have done similar errors before...
the challenging part is that since the dvd door is at the back, I cannot glue strips. I'll have to improvise something.

Thanks!
