General Installation Approach:

1) Before beginning installation, please refer to warning on manual page 10.

2) Decide upon system configuration and options that will be installed (ie: what components, VCP, Tuner, Remote Headphones, 2ND VCP, etc.)

3) Review all manuals to become familiar with electrical requirements and hookups.

4) Decide upon mounting locations of all components and method of mounting.

5) Prep the vehicle by removing any interior trim necessary to gain access to vehicle power hook-up point as well as all areas where interconnecting wire harnesses will need to be located. If any access holes need to be cut into the vehicle (headliner, other trim components, etc.) this should be done now as well. Refer to Page 5.

6) Route the wiring harnesses throughout the vehicle as necessary. (Refer to the wiring diagrams on pages 6 and 7 of this manual as well as the wiring instructions for the individual components and accessory options being installed). Be sure that all wiring is protected from sharp edges and is routed in such a manner that it will not be pinched when all components and interior trim are fully installed. Be sure to leave enough slack in the wiring at each component to allow working room.

7) Remove all A/V system components from their packaging and place them loosely at their respective locations.

8) Connect all components together (electrically) and verify proper operation of all system functions. Note: This is best done both BEFORE and AFTER all components have been permanently mounted.

9) After verifying proper operation of the system, proceed with mounting of each component.

10) When all components have been mounted, recheck function of the entire system again to ensure that no wiring was pinched or connected improperly during final installation.

System 1: Video Pod, VCP

- All wiring necessary is included with this package

- Headphones are connected into the headphone jacks on the pod

System 2: Video Pod, VCP, 2nd VCP (or other A/V component)

- Same as system 1, but extra Source Component Harness (P/N

8010730) must be purchased

Notes:

- All systems have a built-in game/camcorder prep (the A/V input jacks on the video pod itself).

- To any system, there are a few audio output options that can be added as follows:

a) Remote headphone jacks can be added to the system. Refer to

the wiring diagrams on pages 6 and 7.

b) Additional speakers and amplifiers can be added to the system

using the remote headphone outputs (see pages 6 and 7). Also refer to the specifications in the Owner’s Manual (P/N 8010840).

- The LCM641 series video pods are only intended for an overhead, flip down installation. They are not intended for seat back or any other type of mounting. The hinging mechanism is designed for horizontal, flip down use only.

- For audio over the vehicle’s speaker system an FM Modulator may be used. Wireless headphones may be hooked up.
