DVD Headrest

Featured Replies

Hi Folks,

Got some DVD headrests for my Octy MK II VRS but having problems feeding the cable down the inside of the seat - because of the stitching across the middle. Has anyone done this before, or got any ideas how to get the cable past the stitching that runs across the whole of the middle of the seat?

I'm using a coat hanger to feed the cables down but have hit this stumbling block

Any help or advice appreciated.

Thanks

Jon

Hi Jon,

Just to the right/left hand side of the stiching is a small channel where with enough determination you can pass a cable through. I did mine the other day and it's not easy. I ended cutting my plugs off and re soldering them back on once the cable was through but i did have to get them through the headrest posts too first which was the main reason.

Hi - thanks for the info - I ended up taking the back off the bottom of the seat and putting my hand up the back of the seat. Cot a few cuts and bruises but well worth it. Got all my cabling hidden away in the jumbo box armrest and put an isolator switch in the rear ash tray / bin - so it's all hidden wires and looks the business. Love it!!!

Thanks for your advice though!!!
