Thumbs up TV's

the TV's were the hardest part this is how i did it

1: remove the headrests...much easier to work on when not in the car. you will need to get tv's 5.6 inch or less (i used XO vision TFT screens i love them very clear)

2: if you go with the xo vision on the bracket that comes with the tv's you will need to shave off the outer lip...or it will stick out past your headrest and look very shiety.

3: once shaved off the outer lip you will need to line it up where you want it.

4: at the center of where you are going to put the screen will be the center of your X. Cut an X with a razor blade from corner to corner.

5: remove enough foam from the inside to where you can place the bracket inside. (dont remove too much or else your TV will be too far in and again not look right.

6: once foam is removed you can place your bracket inside the headrest. remember to save the left over foam u might need to put some back ion to fortify the bracket so it doesnt move around.

7: once you have the bracket where you want ittake the flaps of leather and fold them into the bracket...i used a hot glue gun but you can use epoxy or whater ever you like to. then you glue the leather inside the bracket. cut off exess so it only goes on ther inner edge not all on the face of the bracket.

8: now here is the hard part...the TV now that you have leather inside a bracket you will have amuch harder time gettin the TV inplace. but that is what you do you have to pop it in. It will take patience and strong hands but you can do it its all a matter of technique. you force fit the TV into the bracket with the leather. run the cable down out the bottom of the head rest and then where the headrest poles going into the seat...pull that leather a lil bit and you can feed a wire down into the seat. i taped mine to a hanger. also before tryin to push to far down remove the plastic cover on the back of the seat and unlock all the leather you will see what i mean when u pull the cover off. and feed the hanger on down through. becareful not to rip the leather on the top near the headrest.

9: after that you will need to buy a power converter and a distribution block for RCA cables video and a FM modulator.

10: remove the center console and all thatcrap you will need to get on the passenger side to get to this the antena wire is on the passenger side and pretty high up in there. get some LONG needle nose pliers to get it off the back of the deck.

11. you most likely will bleed from step 10 but hey its just a lil cut you will live.

12:now just wire it all up and you are good to go. i used grounds and all that from under the ebrake and installed my distribution block in the center console along with power inverter since there is a cig outlet there i used that one and you cant see any cables...

13: oh yea run the cables out the bottom inner side of your seats and run them under the center console drill a hole in it and feed them through to the distribution block. make sure to leave enough slack so you can move your seats around.

GOOD LUCK !!!

Your girl...
The car's a little hottie itself. Is your car lowered? If so, how is the ride (in terms of smoothness) compared to when it wasn't lowered?

the car is dropped about 3 to 3.5 inches. i have some custom coilovers in there =) ride pretty smooth nice and firm though but it hurts when i hit a really hard bump...i might raise it up about an ince..all 4 tires are tucked so it can be raised and still look good
