Vehicle Preparation:

1) Locate vehicle power source. Generally this is best found near the vehicle’s fuse block, which is usually (though not always) under the steering wheel area. Locate an accessory hot circuit to tap into for video system power. Accessory hot means a circuit that is +12VDC when the ignition key is in either the “ACC’Y” or “Run” positions, and 0 Volts DC when the ignition key is removed from the vehicle.

2) Generally, the best location for the video monitor is where the vehicle’s dome light is traditionally installed (center of roof, just behind the two front seats). The monitor should be located in such a manner that it can comfortably be viewed by the rear seat passengers in the vehicle. The monitor should NEVER be located in a position that would place it within the driver’s field of view. This is not only hazardous for driving conditions (as it creates a distraction to the driver), but it is against the law in many states. Check your state laws.

3) Once a monitor location has been determined, there may be prep work required for the headliner. Some of the steps that may need to be taken depending upon your installation are:

a) Removing the vehicle’s dome light. b) The headliner MAY have to be cut out per the diagram below.** c) If the mini-console is being used, it will have to be trimmed to fit the contour of the

headliner. Refer to page 3. NOTE: steps a-c listed above are not required in all installations….you may have to do none, some, or all of these steps.

**IF your particular installation will require you to cut out the headliner, the box that this kit came in can be used as a template. You can remove the shelf that the video monitor rests upon and trace the opening onto the headliner for cutting.
