Re: In Car DVD
Dave
I went the option of using 2x cheap $100 portable DVD units which simply hook over the headrests.
This way easily placed and removed and when not in use, away from prying eyes.
Mind you we only use them for the kids when we go on driving holidays, a couple of DVD's and the y are almost behaved.

Re: In Car DVD
Dave,
When I fitted the arm-rests to my front leather seats, I un-zipped the leather covers from the back and could clearly see the internal of the seats and the holes to the head rests, so feeding wires through won't be a major problem at all and all you have to do is unzip the factory fabric (or leather) covers from the seats.
As for covering the head-rest screens when not in use, it's very easy. All you have to do is ask your wife to make a couple of hoods that go over the head-rests when you leave the car

Re: In Car DVD
John,
You will be better off taping into the power supplier to the cigarette lighter as it only comes on with the ignition. That's what I used to power my headrest DVD players and it's not hard to do at all. You have leather seats and these can un-zip easily from the back and it's only a matter of running the wires inside the seats and connecting them to a power source on the floor. You can save yourself a little fortune by doing it yourself.

Re: In Car DVD
I used the front cigarette lighter as it was easier to remove the centre console where the hand-brake is and hide the wires under it.
