Bongo Fury

Just installed my new roof mounted DVD player which has two lights built in!!!
the dvd player comes with one single wire which is apparently to turn on the dvd lights when you open the door of the vehicle...(although each light has a switch also on the player.)

now i am wondering whether to connect the wire through the drivers door panel and link to the door opening switch or go straight to the bongo interior lights in between the front seats??
the dvd lights earth and live have been connected in line with the main live/earth power outputs...

hey keith, mounted mine in front of the cab roof between two front seats....only problem with this is you cant see out of the rear view mirror when driving if the kids are watching it.....hey its asmall price to pay for a 10.4'' dvd player!!! you can always use a head rest dvd player i guess...
I have a PMS H3 istalled so i have run the main power to this unit.....

If i was keeping the van i would have mounted on the small access panel and poked the wires through between the upper air vents and the main large trap doo, only draw back would have been to remember to unplug the dvd cables before lifting the roof...( and i would have run another set of main power dvd outputs at the rear of the upper compartment so you can watch up there also)...

but for ease of fitting i put in the front area....the dvd player comes with a metal plate to mount to the roof...the roof lining isnt that strong...the way to get around this is to find your mouting point where you want it and drill throught the metal roof in the upper comnpartment.....
all you have to do then is make up a piece of 6-15mm ply/mdf approx8'' x 6'' cover with fabric and use self tapping screws through the roof and into the panel you have made....This will pull the piece of wood you have made tight against the metal roof or your bongo....( just be aware to use the exact right length screws so they dont come through the roof and your made up panel......
before you screw your dvd mounting plate up just cut small slit along the FRONT of the metal mounting plate( not the full length of the plate) in the roof lining so your wiring can slot up there nicely.....Because the dvd player is so close to the interior lights i wired in the dvd lights to the interior van lights so when the dorr opens the dvd lights come on also... hope this helps.....
