Gen 2 Prius :: 2007 - How To Install Built In DVD Headrest

i am going to install built in DVD headrest monitors into my 2007 touring prius. I have posted questions about this before, but looking fopr detailed info on how to install these myself. Ive been told there is an amp under my drivers seat where i can do all the wiring, but I am not sure & don't want to screw things up. How to do this or has a wiring guide or anything like for this, that be real useful. Also, how to get the seat back off to feed the wires down, let me know that as well. I have the leather interior & the seat backs seem seamless. Its the power acoustik HDVD-9 model twin monitors.

Golf/GTI VI :: 2010 - Unable To Remove Rear Side Headrest In Order To Install Child Seat

I have a 2010 4 door GTI. I'd like to install my daughter's front facing Britax child seat either in the rear right or rear central position. However, in either case, I'm finding that most of the rear weight ends up on the headrest and I would like to simply remove the headrest from that seating position.

I read in the user manual that to remove the headrest,I pull it to it's highest position and then push the button on the right side of the plastic entrance of the head rest into the seat, and 'simply' pull the headrest vertical out of the seat.

This is similar to how this was done in other cars I've owned. However it is not working for me with the GTI. Once I pull the headrest to the highest possible position I can get to, I press the button but the headrest simply refuses to come out. I've tried this on the other rear seat and same problem. With the middle rear seat I can't seem to pull the headrest out beyond its lowest position.

Camry :: 07 - How To Bend The Headrest

How to tilt or bend the headrest to make it tilt back about 1". I also thought of removing some padding. I deal with it right now by putting in the headrest backwards. It makes for a pain in the neck on long trips. I can't believe they did not make it adjustable. I have the SE V6 with leather.

Camry :: How To Remove Headrest Mounts

Search did not yield useful information, maybe I used the wrong search terms?

Is there an easy way to remove the headrest mounts, e.g. the parts at the top of the setback into which the headrest bars slide?

Also curious on how to remove the seat latch release knobs on the tops of the rear seats.

Replacing factory leather with a Street Wire leather kit due to a tear.

(Once leather kit is swapped out I will have the torn panel replaced and will offer the factory leather kit for sale.)

Prius C :: 2012 - Cabin Display Screens Too Bright?

I just brought home my 2012 Prius C and when I turn on the headlights the brightness of the touch screen and the animation display is way too bright. I have figured out how to dim the odometer and speed lights using the knob on the left of the steering wheel, but is there any way to dim the others? It's very distracting and irritates my eyes.

Camry :: Fogs Will Not Turn On Shortly After HID Install

I purchased a set of HIDs for my 2010 SE fogs last week from DDM Tuning and couldn't wait to install them. Since I purchased my low beam set from there, it made a lot of sense to get the matching pair from them too. Anyway, after the install, all was working fine. I did a few test sessions to make sure they would turn off and on the way they were supposed to and they passed.

As I am driving home from a friends house (shortly after the install), I realized that my switch was turn to ON and not AUTO. I turned my switch from ON to AUTO while driving.. After doing so, I noticed that the road in front of my were not as bright as they were before turning the switch. I pulled over and saw that my fog lights were no longer on.. I played with the fog light switch switch, turning them off and on and the only light I would see go on and off, was the one on my dash (the fog lamp indicator).

I have since switched ballasts with my low beams and STILL.. NOTHING. I don't understand what happened and why BOTH fogs have gone out?!? I checked the 10A fuse under the hood that is linked to the front fogs and it's good. I checked the HID bulb and it looks to be burned out, BUT I also plugged my stock halogen H11 bulb into the socket and NOTHING. That puzzles me more..

Camry :: OEM Auto-Dimming Rearview Mirror Install?

My old flip style rear view mirror was getting a little bad looking on the bottom of the mirror, so I decided to go pick up an OEM auto-dimming one. I did not care for homelink as I have no need for it, nor do I need temp since thats on the car already, so I wasn't interested in a non oem mirror. Plus I like simplicity, so plug and play is always nice. I paid $70 for the mirror, you can expect to pay around that as well.

Anyways, from my understanding, our Camrys should come prewired for the auto-dimming mirror, or at least the sunroof equipped models should come prewired. The plug sits in the overhead console near the drivers side sunvisor taped down. It's just a little white plug with a black sheath around the wiring.

Tools Needed:
-Your hands
-A smallish hex key (I don't know the exact size) or a smallish torx screwdriver

From start to finish, this shouldn't take you longer than 10 minutes to do. Let me emphasize first that you should make sure you're prewired for the auto-dimming mirror before you go out and buy one unless you prefer to hardwire things, or return things.

Step 1: Check if you're prewired for the mirror. Start by pulling down the overhead console. Push on the sunglasses holder to drop it down, grab on with both hands, and pull down. Don't worry, you shouldn't break anything, but don't pull down insanely hard otherwise you may pull some wires out of the harness attached to it. Now check near the drivers side sunvisor and see if theres a plug taped down, if there is, fantastic!

Step 2: (if you're not prewired for the mirror, you can stop here).Push that plug through the hole near the windshield to get that out of the way. You can now put the overhead console back on.

Step 3: Behind your stock rearview mirror, theres a little screw holding it on. You'll need either a hex key, or a torx screwdriver to remove it (although you can probably use a flathead to get it out if you want). DONT LOSE THAT SCREW. Once you unscrew it, pull up on the mirror to get it to slide out of the little metal mount its sitting on.

Step 4: Now that the old mirror is out, get the new mirror. Get the plug you pushed out of the overhead console and plug it into the mirror. Now, slide the mirror back onto that metal mount and then screw it in.

Step 5: Turn your key on, or to acc, and the mirror should now turn on. Easiest way to tell is if the compass comes up.

Step 5.5: Admire your hard work and your fancy new mirror!

I have a 2011 Camry, and I would like to install a wired backup camera. What's the best way of running it from the license plate area to the center dash?

I would like to replace the original radio with a new radio that has a built-in display, so ideally the camera cable would end up somewhere behind the radio. And I would like the cable to not be visible, if possible.

Camry :: Location Of Mount Holders To Install LE Spoiler?

I ordered a stock, LE spoiler to spice up my base model Camry. I read that it's installed through the factory mounting holes although, when I took off the interior trunk lid cover, I did not see any "existing mount holes". It actually looks like a tight squeeze/fit to get any type of tool to drill out or ratchet any mounting bolts down.
