only problem with young kids, if they cant use the remote or read etc, is you need to be able to see it on the fron screen so you can change what they are watching etc, which means extra cabling to the av1 input on the tuner in the rear, while your there might as well add an out from the tuner to the av1 in of the device to get tv also.

one of mine has just reached 5 so when i put them in the d4 (when i get one soon hopefully) i might not bother with all the extra.

Sprung setup, no removal of headrests needed.
As you say they clip in between the poles. So a very quick and easy install

My av outs turned up today so will get them fitted so boy can watch tv in the back as well.

just wanted to revive this thread to see if your AV units are still going strong and have you done much more to it?

I am also interested in your thoughts after a few months use.
I also labeled my AV inputs & Out but i did it 'cos I know my memory is crap and that it would be a lot of moons before I managed to complete the install.
It still surprises me how SWMBO finds uses for my pocket money before I manage to buy what I want.

I have yet to fit my DTV but wanted to get all the wiring in place prior, so can anyone suggest how many of what will I need if i wanted the 2 rear screens etc? Any pics of any wiring that goes onto the DTV with the extra screens?
