Vizualogic DVD Headrest Installation - Full Writeup
#16
Man, just used your awesome post to install my DVD headrests. Thanks to you I had the confidence to install these myself. It took me a whopping 45 minutes. Thats right, 45 minutes. Dealer wanted $2,200 to install theirs and the electronic shop was charging me $999 for these exact headrests. I found them online for $320 with free shipping.
I installed the "Chameleon" 7 inch screen headrests. I have black interior and it mathced perfectly. It also comes with tan and greay overlays in case you have a different color interior.
I will post pics as soon as I can. Again thanks for your post.

Sorry to bump an old thread, just seeing if anyone can provide a performance update now that they have been installed for a while. Researching the benefits if any of the Vizualogic universal set at $700 or even jumping to their touch screens at $1100.

If you have kids in the back. You cant go wrong with the Sirius Back Seat TV system. Instead of running a DVD player.
I installed a complete system in my daughters Toyota. The best money ever spent.

Tough choice. DVD or Back Seat TV... DVD or Back Seat TV...
Congrats to those who have the talent to install the systems youselves. I am not really sure if I even attempt doing this project myself. It seems like a big task.

My choice. DVD, DVD and DVD . I hate the monthly fee even though it's just $8/month. Have a tons of monthly fee bills already and hate to have another one

Great DIY Tut!
The headrests are Power Acoustik not Vizualogic; two different companies. I installed the same headrests in our 08 Highlander, 05 ES330, and 06 RX400H. I put one in about two years ago and thought "Great, I need to put these in all of our vehicles". They are all having issues now and I am looking for a replacement company for the headrest.

any of you all think the "OEM" DVD screens for the RX will fit the GS? Seems like they have the same seats, or very similar.

One set, the driver side does not display video anymore. Second set, passenger side the head phone jack is out and video out breaks up for video game system (plays on one but both can kids can view). Battery life on wireless head phones is not good so it is easier for wired listening. I think I will make one "good set" and start over in one vehicle with a new company.

In my case they don't get a ton of use, but they have been used many times over the year and are still holding up just fine.

Thanks for the replies, at $550 I'm going to give them a try. That is half the price of the Vizualogic 9" screens. We just got our 09 RX350 last Friday and love it so far.
