Factory Nav DVD question
Is there an video out from the head unit so that you can run the signal to monitors in the headrests? I need video, but want a sun roof (drop down out)and I dont need the "factory" deal as it is my understanding that the factory DVD-Headrest units is two seperate DVD players so if two in the back want to watch the same thing they have to watch one or the other monitor? Seems odd...so I was thinking of running video out to monitors from the factory nav unit.
Thanks

yes, there is a video out that you can use
however, the scion headrest set has no input. It can show two diffrent dvds or one can act as the master. The above is aftermarket monitors having two inputs each. Nav is AV1, and a PS2 is AV2

I had the nav and factory headrests. I changed the nav for a Kenwood DDX8019 but still have the stock dvd headrest. Ok first the headrest are set up so you can watch whatever is on one on the other you just hit aux 2 on the screen the stock also have a video in but its on the front of the screen. So the stock can watch different or same and it came with a nifty remote and some aux in connectors. I didn't like that what ever was on the main screen on my new deck couldn't be seen on the stock headrests so what I did was cut the wires did the pin outs on it and made it to where you can still watch different on either but now aux 2 is whatever I am playing on the deck up front. So you can watch Ipod Video or DVDs or whatever you want. The deck will also do zone control so in the back they can watch and listen to whatever they want and the people up front something completly dif. Or whatever you want. The stock headrests are nice some neat features you just had to mod them a bit.

I could not for the life of me figure out how to get both Moniters to play the same movie off of one player! For some reason my brain was stuck on the notion that i had to run a aux cable to the other moniter input, but yeah no outs on the stock moniters.
I didnt think that the were somehow linked together already
I just tested it, and yes it does work! I went thru that manual front to back and could not find anything to suggest that how to do it. The only thing they say, is that you can run the sound thru the SNS by playing the DVD on the passenger side DVD and hitting AUX on the SNS.
