I am really curious if it would be possible to add a monitor. I wanted the rear seat DVD but I have a moonroof. So it has to be possible to put your own monitor instead of the OEM roof one.

This is what I did, mine also has the moonroof, but I had the Avic-Z2 installed in place of the factory NAV unit.

I used to have an Excursion and loved the monitors in it. I would like to do the same thing you did but am afraid the monitors will be too close to the rear seat passengers. How do you feel about that? Is it comfortable to watch?

I like it better then watching a movie on an air plane, if you have ever flown on an air plane with the screens in the head rests of the seats in front of you you'll know what I mean. The back seat of the truck has a little more room between the passenger and the front seat so it's actually more comfortable watching a movie or playing a game. Doesn't feel overly close at all, plus you don't get a crick in your neck looking up at the roof mounted screens, it's more of a natural position for your head, or your passengers/kids heads.
