Now
that you have bought a headrest DVD player, you're probably excited to start using that device to watch your
favourite movies as you travel. But before you can jump into that, first, you
must ensure that the device is properly installed in your vehicle. Always
remember that if the DVD player is not properly installed, it can potentially
cause problems to both the device and to your vehicle. To help you out, here's
a step-by-step guide to installing this type of entertainment system.
Step
No 1. The first step is to remove your car's factory headrest. This is usually
done by simply pressing a button at the base of the headrest post on the top of
the seat. Once pressed, you should be able to pull the headrest and posts
upward. When you're done, you should be able to see two empty post holes on top
of your car seat.
Step
No 2. Next is to prepare the DVD players by gently pulling apart on their
headrest posts until they are of the exact same distance apart as your factory
headrest's posts. When you're done, carefully slide the wires into the headrest
posts, before placing them through the empty post holes and into the inside of
your car seat. When the wires are all the way in, place the car headrest DVD player on the car seat, ensuring that their headrest posts fit the
post holes correctly.
Step
No 3. If the back cover of the car seat is removable, take it off so you can
have better access to the wires and have more room to move. If not, just pull the wires all the way
through the bottom of the car seat. Now, take out the power wire assembly,
which has the RCA connections, black and red wires, and S-Video type connector,
that comes with the DVD player and attach it to the device.
Step
No 4. Connect the red wire (power) to your car's power source. For easy access to power, tap into
your vehicle's power seat wire or even the power lead in the centre console if
available. The red wire can be connected using a standard crimp cap or other
crimp connection. When you're done, take the black
wire (ground) out and secure it below the seat of your car. Attach it to a bolt
underneath the car seat.
Step
No 5. Next is to connect the S-Video type connector to the wire assembly of the
second car DVD player. Make sure
that S-Video head and the RCA connectors are properly and firmly connected to
their respective ports. Otherwise, the two DVD players won't be in sync and/or
their video and audio won't work. Once completed, tidy up your work and make sure there
are no loose wires hanging underneath the car seats. Repeat the procedure above
for the second DVD player. Finally, test the DVD players to ensure that they
are working properly.
