My latest project to remove the bench seat and install bucket seats in the second row! Then I decided to install Seperate DVD players in all the headrest for all the passengers in the back! The toughest part was finding a keyed power source! After a couple hours of searching I found one underneath the dash that gave me power when the key was turned on!

I have the factory dvd head unit and overhead monitor and have a set of monitors to install into the headrests but not sure where to get the video feed from. Any ideas?

Is there anywhere to get the video feed from the factory dvd player to run to aftermarket monitors?

I can't remember exactly what the factory components look like back there but I remember needing to have that for my aftermarket TV to work with the factory rear entertainment but it should also give an RCA output.

I am running a factory head navigational because I don't like how you have to set up an aftermarket nav head unit in these models.
