Have an 02 LX470 w/ factory nav & Mark Levinson audio.
Mod to play dvds in motion done.
Looking to find wire carrying video from changer to head unit. Want to tap it to feed headrests.
Anyone have wiring info?

Answering my own question, so everyone here can tap the video.
there are two rows of molexes. the molex you're looking for is on the top row, far right. the video wire is solid red with grey spots.
* there is a red wire w/ a white stripe in the same molex. this is NOT the video wire.
i t-tapped it and got video to the headrests. the signal is weak, you can either amplify it or tape the hell out of it to make sure it's solid.

Just a quick note. If the main unit is switched to nav, climate, etc, video cuts out. The disc continues to play (you can hear audio), but the video blanks out. Just an FYI, as I was hoping to play movies on the head rests & use the nav on the main screen.
