Sweet...if you're good at fiberglass fabrication you can really hook it up. I taught myself how to do it when I did my second screen.
Some thoughts:
One concern about tablets would be 'sunlight readability.' If it's a capacitive touchscreen (like the iPad) it's going to have a terrible glare. Also, if you use a tablet your only screen dimming options maybe gamma adjustment (which CF can do), but carpc touchscreens typically have a sunlight sensor and automatically dim when the ambient light dims.
Do you already have the rear headrest monitors? If they are composite input you may run a problem in general because you'll need a composite out from the tablet/pc and that is becoming hard to find.
The DVD player addition shouldn't be difficult...mount that sucker in the OnStar location.
