GENERAL INSTALLATION APPROACH: 1) Decide upon system configuration and options that will be installed (i.e.: what components, VCP, Video Game, external amp, wireless headphones, etc.). 2) Review all manuals to become familiar with electrical requirements and hook ups. 3) Decide upon mounting locations of all components and method of mounting.
VEHICLE PREPARATION: 1) Locate an accessory power source (+12v when key is in the ACC. and run positions, and 0v when key is off), and also a good ground generally, these wires can be found at the ignition switch or fuse-box. 2) The mounting method and location will vary from vehicle to vehicle, so this manual will only focus on the installation of the video monitor and related console accessories. 3) Generally, the best location for the video monitor is where the vehicle's factory dome light is installed.
TRIM RING INSTALLATION: This page only covers special installation considerations for the trim ring installation. If the docking station is to be installed in a vehicle with the trim ring, it may need to be trimmed to fit the contour of the vehicle headliner. 1) In this installation, the docking station is mounted directly to the overhead cross-member in the roof using the mounting screw bosses. These screw bosses should contact the cross-member directly (i.e.

CONNECTING THE DOME LIGHTS The dome lights in the video monitor require three connections to the vehicle's wiring. There are two common types of dome light circuits used, positive or negative switched. Positive systems supply voltage to the interior lights to turn them on, negative switched systems apply ground to illuminate the bulbs. To determine which system you have you must locate the wires at the dome light.
