Headrest LCDs - Where 2 get power?

Where is the best place to tap into power for my headrest LCDs and DVD Player? I was thinking the cigarette lighter power and adding a toggle switch so it doesnt have constant power. Also, when getting the tvandnav2go mod, does it add audio inputs for the dvd player or will I need an FM Modulator?

Thanks

i used the cigarette lighter in the console for my power source. it all comes apart, you just need a philips head screwdriver. i'd run the wires down under the carpet, then zip tie them to the seat frame and run the wires up inside the foam of the seat.

its a switched source, it'll only provide juice when you've got the key in it and turned.

I bought the headrests with the LCDs already built in them. The grey leather they came in was about a 99.5% match. I once attempted to add lcds to existing headrests (in a montero), and had nothing but trouble, but I am in no way an expert and I am sure a professional installer could have done better.

I added 2 7" screens to my stock headrests. It took me about 1.5 - 2 hours to finish and I am by far not an expert at installing anything. Pretty much you just have to cut out a lot of foam and put the frames in. I zip - tied them to the headrest posts inside and they set. The shop that did my wiring told me they looked as good as if I would have had them do it - for $800.
