I have been looking on Craigslist recently and going to purchase a pair of (2) 9.2 LCD headrests. They are the fully adjustable ones to fit any car. My question is: What is the easiest way to get the existing headrests out and also get the wires from the new headrests into my dash for power/ video source? The cables come out of the bottom of the "poles" on the head-rests.
Thanks:)

On the trim clips below the headrests, there is a small hole that you need to insert a pin into to release the headrests.
To get the wires through, you can unclip the black plastic strip that goes along the bottom of the seatback. You'll have to look underneath to see it. Once you unclip this you can reach up and pull the wires through then route them underneath the carpet towards your video source.

Damn...I was just going to ask if anyone has done this, since I was looking at some similar, if not the same, headrests.

"Search" FTW!
