Going to fit my head unit over the weekend and just going through some fitting guides. But can't find anything on wiring in the handbrake feed, for the dvd player. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance Lee

Yeah, the DVD player wont function without the input from the handbrake. Its all to do with the law regarding no monitors to function in front of the driver when moving. It could be frigged though, dependant on what you need, an earth or a voltage.

when i wired mine up i earthed the wire that goes to the handbreak to the back of my dvd player so my lad could watch it while i was driving rather then just when the handbreak is on.....

All fitted this morning earthed the wire behind the HU. I fitted the phone mic on the sun-visiour and hid the cables and whilst I was at hid the wires for my camera detector, well pleased with my self and it's all working!
