Headrest DVD Player Install
2005 X5 3.0i

I just bought the following system which came with a very vague installation instruction. Can someone tell me how to run all the wires through the seat and where to connect for power?

No I do not. I just need to know how to connect to power once I run the wires to the floor.

Do you have a cigarrete lighter in your armrest ? That would be an easy point to tap for power

I do have a cigarette lighter but in the front and back. Would it be possible to wire both dvd units to one power source?

Search for other headrest threads...there is a very extensive writeup on one of them for some eBay headrests, connections inside the armrest area, seats disassembled and all. Your not the first nor the last person to install such an item...the search button is your friend.
