United Kingdom 2005 Range Rover Sport Supercharged Java Black

WOW...Karan they look great !

That's convinced me to get them, will be on eBay as soon as I get off here.

thanks for the pictures - the fit looks excellent they look factory, I really like the fact they are HD and they zip up out of sight

Were they easy to fit?? ....I'm not too bad with these kind of jobs so would like to do it myself, unless it requires a bit more expertise

Thanks again for the insight

Jitzz

You will need to open the back of the seat to run the power cable. You can either hardwire it or use the cigarette socket to run them. They provide both the adapters. Dont buy off ebay, buy it off there website. You also need to choose the correct size of the poles for the headrest that will fit your range rover. Add them on skype or send them an email and ask for the sizes.

You simply cant go wrong with this purchase, 240pounds for 2 headrests with screens fitted already. + much better specifications and touch screen then other companies asking for a ridiculous 800pounds for junk.

Hi jitzz

Yeah nice screens but I think the 906 look better personally and un clip for security say if u go on hols ?

Ok I emailed them and below is there very cautious of there commitment to say if


Reply:
Thanks for your interest in our items. They are universal and can fit most cars, very easy to install, the poles are adjustable, and there are 10mm and 12mm poles coming with the headrests. If the 10mm and 12mm poles cannot fit your car, you can buy the 14mm poles from us. Please note that the inner width between the 2 poles is from 120mm to 190mm, you also need to compare this size with your original headrests. Should you have any question, just feel free to contact us.

If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact us.

Best regards,

I'm going to measure the poles tonight
And then decide

Hi Dave,

Good call on the pole size check before you order them....could save a lot of headache. I think these guys have a uk distribution centre so shouldn't be too bad.

The last deal I saw included the remotes, games and free set of headphones, so well worth it in my opinion. I suppose the comment from them looks to cover all eventualities so , I got the same note too..

I'll keep you posted

Hi jitzz

Measured the poles with micrometer and they are 11.99 mm = 12 mm will do

Pole distance from centres are 150.1mm so they adjust to 190mm so ok on that front

Will order mine tonight

Have you made up your mind on which ones ???

Dave

Hi dave

You're a star for doing all the hard work to get things measured ....I'm going to order mine too Very Happy

I'm going for the black headrest HD 908 with the free headphones they are a bit more, but I like the zip cover which hides the screen when not in use ...are you still going for the 906's

Will let you know when I get them delivered, should be straightforward to fit so will look to get them in ASAP

Thanks again

Jitzz

Skype the supplier and ask for the headphones separately if they don't originally come with it. There might be a separate cost

Hi all,

I ordered the HD908 in Black from ebay as they come with 2x headphones and 2 controllers, they only took 2 days for delivery

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/190717305206?ssP...1439.l2649

But I am having problems opening the back of the seat so that I can hardwire them in. I managed to fed both wires inside the seat but cannot get the wires to come out of the bottom of the seat Big Cry

I have tried using the advice from this post

http://www.rrsport.co.uk/gallery/albums/us...0Cover.pdf

but still cannot get the bottom apart Big Cry

does anyone have a "how to" with photos Question or a easy way to open up the bottom of the seat back

Great site

Andy

this is a simple thing to do

at bottom of seat ( you want to adjust seat up to max and top half fully forward )

there is two C shaped trims one inside the other (like when you put ur fingers togeter when cold ) = {}

slowly and with pressure start at one end of them push bottom trim up and with force top trim down and slowly pull apart

then bingo hand up wizards sleeve pull cables down and do reverse to put back together 5 min job !!


908's are the nuts i have too but im getting poles made to sit headrest forward more Thumbs Up
