Hey guys,

I just finished my dvd headrest installation. i put a set of dvd 7 inch screen that i got from ebay. i used the same set on my 08 sequoia and they work awesome. this year the price has gone down so much they were only $200 shipped from china and got here in 5 days via fedex

installation was pretty straight forward
unclip the lower leather piece.
remove two c clips
use fish tape to fish down the head rest
then pull a piece of wire back to the top
tie that to the new headrest wires and pull them out the bottom.
12v on was real easy. grey wire in the middle of the seat.
ground was used by using the screw that holds the plastic on.

works awesome. if u use the same power source you don't have to worry about video cutting out when car starts. only down side is video output wire they gave me was super short and i ended up not using it. the kit came with two remotes, two infrared headsets, two controllers and pretty much everything needed to install.

Thanks,
Sid

 

How is the leather compair to the rest of seats ? Is it a whole headrest replacement? more pictures please!
Can you post the E-bay.links?

 

yes entire head rest replacement. color match is close. just ebay for dvd headrest 7 inch and you'll see them.

 

I have had the same ones for two years now. Still working great. My 6 year old is very rough on them and they are still going. I gave them 6 months to live because of the price.https://www.clublexus.com/forums/mem...0&ref=gnr-next

Best electronic nanny you can buy for long trips. I have them on a RX but I have been eyeballing the GX so I'll be trolling here for a bit.

 

wow, looks very doable, thanx for the tips and info,

 

Sid, can you tell us which seller selling that unit pls ? there are tons on ebay w/ that keyword, can't figure out which one is it.
thx!

 

Dumb question; is the DVD player in the unit itself?

 

Yes each headrest has one under the screen

 

hey sid, can you just set it up to use the cigarette 12v for power if you are no good at splicing/connectiong wires?

 

yeah cig should work fine... trust me when i say during the install u'll see the wire you need to tap.. it's right smack in the middle of the seat.
