Headrest Housing

Mounting stand

Steps of Installing Headrest Housing

CAUTION: make sure the screws are not long enough to go through
the headrest!
If you have any doubts about this type of installation, please consult
your local mobile electronics retailer.

Setup work

remove the headrest and set it in an uncluttered
work area. Take the appropriate precautions to
ensure that it is not damaged during the installation.

7

Measurements

Push on the headrest with your fingers to make
sure there are no obstructions that would hinder
the installation. Use paper template to mark the
area to be cut.

Cut the Headrest

Using an adjustable-depth blade, start
your cut 1/4 inch inside one corner and
cut diagonally across, stopping 1/4 inch in
from the other corner. Repeat the procedure
for the other two corners.

Remove Foam & Obstructions

Carefully peel back the material. Set the
adjustable blade to one inch depth and cut
around the edges of the hole, staying 1/4 inch
inside the edge. Pull up one corner of the foam
and use the blade to cut underneath. Remove
small section at a time, using the pull up and
cut method for uniform depth. Use a dremel or
other appropriate tool to remove other
obstructions. Insert the monitor to measure the
fit and make adjustments if necessary

8

Route the Cable Through the Headrest

Run the supplied cable through the opening
and out to the bottom of the headrest. If possible,
conceal the wires using a shaft covering.
Connect the power, ground and video leads to
test the MONITOR.
Before connecting the monitor, pull the
connecting cable assembly through the
headrest housing as shown in diagram. Place
headrest housing into the opening and secure with
correct fasteners.

Install the Headrest Housing

Pull the connecting cable through the center of
the housing as shown in diagram, and secure with
correct fasteners.

Insert the Monitor

Push to insert the monitor
to the headrest housing.

Removal

Insert the release key between the monitor and
headrest housing gap and this will remove the
monitor from headrest housing.

Operating your system in a safe and legal manner

When operating a motor vehicle, it should always be your highest priority to
maintain safe driving habits.

It is illegal in many areas of most countries to drive with TV or MONITOR
turned on, when it is visible to the driver. Please check your local and state
laws governing the use of MOBILE ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM in your area.
