Today, families are spending more time in their cars than ever before. This means bored and restless children. Sometimes they just need something to hold their attention while traveling.
A great solution to keep your passengers occupied is a headrest DVD player. This way, everyone can enjoy their favorite movies or TV shows, significantly reducing travel time. Luckily, installing car headrest DVD players is easier than you can imagine.
In this article, we'll take a look at car DVD installation and show you everything you need to know. Read on to get all the facts.
The headrest:- To install this DVD player in your car, you must first remove the headrest. This is because the power cables and connector must be routed through the holes where the headrest is mounted to the seat.
- Next, remove the cover from the bottom of the seat enough so that you can fish out the wires that you ran through the holes at the top.
- Currently, most players can be released directly with the mounting bracket without removing the headrest.
- Typically the cables are connected to the main unit under the dashboard. However, you can also feed them to a separate power supply if you prefer.
- To make the wires hidden from view, we recommend running them under the carpet. Otherwise it will look sticky. Additionally, it is quite likely that exposed wires will eventually get caught on a person's foot and be pulled out.
- Using a DVD headrest is also great for IPTV service.
- Now you need to connect your DVD player to the stereo system in your vehicle. This is not necessary for all DVD players, but it definitely provides the highest quality sound.
- Note that when connecting the wires to existing stereo cables, you will need to strip the ends to connect them together. Do this carefully. We also recommend soldering the splices if possible.
- This is actually the easiest step in this process. Once the wiring is complete, you will need to slide your new headrest into place. Be careful when installing the headrest posts. If the wires are kinked, it can prevent proper power delivery and affect sound quality.
- So take it slowly. Once the headrest is secure, connect the power cord.
- The final step is to look for exposed wires. Tie them together with tape and hide them out of sight. Make sure everything is secure so nothing comes loose and affects performance.
- Installing a headrest DVD player isn't rocket science. All you need is a little patience. There are many great headrest DVD players on the market to suit every budget. There are even clip-on models if you want to keep your original headrest.
DVD players are an easy and convenient way to keep everyone happily occupied during long hours on the road. So choose your favorite action movie or animated classic and get ready to enjoy the ride!
