maybe you should go over to invisions office, cracka few heads and make them tell you how to do it!

im also doubting that the aux would work through the box, but wanted to make sure, cauze it would be easier than any other way. If it doesnt work, taping into the wires like you said would be the best way to go.

ok well i head back from Invidion. heres what they said;

"
Hi,
The only source for input on this system is the front of the monitor which has the RCA plugs on it. The Rev 3 which is a set up for a 4 headrest system also has a TV tuner built in as well as RCA input on the box. If you need to connect another video source all the time and just change the source then you will need the REV 3 control box. You can purchase that directly through the same dealership from whom you bought the system from. Hope this helps!

Thanks,

You were rite, the front is the only AUX. Im gona check with my dealer to see how much they want for the control (i call it jumper) box, and if its not too much ill go that route. other wise im gona start cutting the wires.

I guess we dont really need to know the connector type anymore.

just spoke with woodfield hummer, chicago area, they call it a "audio and video control module" just in case you wana check in with your dealer. they want $99 for it. guess it not bad cauze it does have a tv tuner in it.

Im not sure what im gona do. I just applied for 2 jobs, if i get either of the jobs within the next week or two, im gona get the module, otherwise ill do it the affordable way.

I called Invision about 6 months ago with the same question (aux input w/o using the inputs on the headrests). I was told by a technician that they were planning on making an add on TV Tuner which would have another set of inputs. He told me it would cost around $100, so I wonder if they scrapped that idea, and just made a new control module altoghether.

Sorry for the late reply, been busy but looks like you got it all figured out. Thanks for doing all the leg work on this.
