My DVD player Setup

[911-996]

Hi all

I have a 04' Cayenne S which i had the dealer install and setup a dvd player system in the rear headrests prior to pickup

Unfortunately they installed the dvd unit in the storage draw under the drivers seat (smart thinking <_< )

Its an absolute pain in the *** to live with, especially if you have kids in the back saying, pull over we want to change movie

I was thinking of re-wiring it to the middle console where the cup holders and cigarette lighter in the rear are

Has anyone done this or got pics of a successful dvd player setup in the back of a cayenne?

Attached are the pics of my current setup so you get the idea (Sorry about the quality)

Cheers

I agree with you, it is only an idea, install the D.V.D. reader in the armrest in the middle of the rear seats, it's easy to install, complete invisible and user friendly.

Ive heard of that being done, would be interested in seeing how people mount the bracket within the arm wrest

ill look into this :)

Can you control the DVD Player through the PCM unit ? Or is it independent ?

no its most likely independent..pretty stupid spot to install that on the passenger side but in AU its the driver side :D

i agree install into the cup holder or rear armrest.

how much did dealer charge?

The unit is a totally independent Alpine deck with 2x Alpine LCD's and an infrared transmitter for 2x alpine headphones mounted to the roof above the centre arm rest.

Unfortunately at the time of purchase I had other issues on hand and left it to the dealer to do, I just wished I had known about renntech or other Porsche boards like it at the time.

It doesnt have a direct aux connection to the stereo which I thought was ***** weak, the RF transmitter under the seat does a crap job at sound quality and the cost, well... arm + leg + first born.

Is there an AUX connection at the back of the cayennes sound deck?

It has this ever so useless AV button, is there some way to make use of it or activate its function?

Cheers
