hello everyone. i have just purchased two headrest monitors for my IS250. I need some advice on how I can run the wires without damaging anything and leaving any wires visible in anyway.

Basically I need to run 2 RCA cables from the back of my NAV UNIT (which i know how to open and get access to) The two RCA cables need to go to the headrests (1 RCA cable per seat) and the other thing is that the headrest require power that has a ciggerette lighter plug. I am thinking of cutting the wire of them and joining them into one single plug and maybe plugging it into the power thats available in the armrest unit that has Aux and Power.

Can anyone please advise me on how I can run these wires. I'm assuming that i should be able push the wires down the seat and make it come out underneath, but what do i do from there?

thank you.

Sounds like you might need to take it to an audio shop.

Will this unlock the phone/ sat nav/ mp3 folders etc when car is moving? Would be intersted in this myself if it does.

The unit is just a video converter that allows adding two video and audio sources to factory navigation system. It comes with vehicle specific harness that eliminates the need for cutting or making any kind of modification to factory setup. I've also got myself a incar DVB-T tuner to plug into one of the input sources that will allow me to watch freeview tv on the screen. The other input source will be left empty for now. From this unit i will also take the RCA cables to the headrests.

In regards to unlocking the phone/sat nav etc.. its a seperate hack
