Hi, I have bought a pair of headrests with monitors built in. They came with a video splitter/booster and very poor instructions. I also bought a Joytech XBox power supply which will invert the 12v supply from my car to 230v for the (non-slimline) Playstation 2.

The problem is: How do I wire the system?

The PS2 outputs into three BCA connectors; one video, a left audio channel and a right one.

Each monitor has audio and video input, so how do I split the PS2 output into two?

Should I somehow connect one monitor to the other?

Any help or direction pointers would be much appreciated!

Get one "Y" splitters RCA One female with two male RCA ends. Connect the female end of the "Y" to the yellow playstation RCA, Then connect male "Y" ends to each of one creen RCA video inputs.

Thanks for that.

As I understand it then; the Playstation 2 outputs stereo sound channels but each monitor only accepts one mono input. Your suggestion makes sense!

Thanks very much!

Another way u can do it is buying a video amp. Its a one singnal input with four singnal outputs. That should make it work.
