Hi - to be honest, eBay... they appear very frequently.

If you dont get genuine screens, you can do it DIY if you get a sensible sized scren and can fabricate a mount up within the headrest. The leather is sufficiently "slack" to allow the insertion.

There are plenty of cheap headrest replacements around too - you just need to check how the wires emerge (see earlier thread) and that the "poles" are the right size.

If I did it again, and did not have access to a pair of the "volvo" ones, then I would fit screens to the factory headrests I think.... but its a hard call given the value of the other available options.

It goes without saying however, that changing the headrests from the factory ones may reduce the saftey factor when it comes to WHIPS effectivness, and also affect other occupant safety if the vehicle crashes - its your call and responsibility to be aware and accept that.
