I am looking for any information I can get on this project I am about to undertake. Specifically, I am installing a Blaupunkt DVD player with Vizualogic headrest lcd's. The suburban has the bose system with XM already as one of the sources. Questions:

1) Best place to mount the DVD player?

2) Best place to tap into the power from that location (ignition and constant)? I believe the same lead can power the lcd's (2) and DVD player.

3) Is there a place to hook the audio directly into an auxiliary in the radio? or do I have to use the FM modulator?

Thanks for any advice.....Mw

1) Center Console

2) Underneath Steering column for Ignition and Constant (Constant needs to be fused) or you can run constant directly to the battery.

3) No Aux. Input on Suburban OEM radio. FM modulator will be needed.
