Hello all.
First post on the forum after finding a few useful bits of info on here for my new Omega - 2000 'W' plate 2.5 V6 estate (facelift) - leather and all the toys for £700. So far, so good!
Anyway, I was wondering if anyone had tried to mount a DVD player in the roof on these cars? Had one in my old Grand Voyager and kept kids quiet on long journeys. Any advice on kit choice and installation / difficulty welcome!
Cheers
Dave

Depends if you have a sunroof fitted - If not, then the metalwork over the "B" post is ideal for making the monitor base secure, and if you do have a roof, then go for headrest monitors as you will be forever trying to prevent the cables from catching

That was the Autovision, made by Johnson Controls, and they are very easy to come by as nobody wants them due to an abysmal screen resolution and picture - we struggle to get rid of them - Bloody awfull option !!
Becker did one a few years ago with a very tiny "two foot" footplate, and were a dream to install in saloon cars
:y

I think a member called 'Jim' has fitted one from a Zafira GSl to his facelift Irmscher saloon. Haven't seen the results first hand yet though... :-\

Last one I "disposed" of on ebay only made around £120 - seldom go for more than that

Seen a few in Omegas with screens in the back of the front headrests. Looked like a nice upgrade.

Ive seen Jim's close up...looks spot on, and easy to fit according to him
-
Does anybody have a manual and or a wiring schema of this system.
