iPhone 5 to headrest screens
I've recently fitted the headrest screens but gone no further as yet.
To mirror what's playing on my iPhone would these two items coupled together work please ?

Screens require all the kit installing and your current AUX in modding using the Freelander parts so you have AV inputs. Once you've completed the upgrade you'll require the iPhone 5 version of this adaptor: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RCA-TV-AV-USB-Da...rkt%3D1%26.Mods:

not sure this will work cause the iPhone 5 has a Lightning port that does only provide digital Video signals.
Therefore you get no analog Video signal out of newer Apple devices.
The older Apple cable 30pin Dock to Analog video works only with older Apple devices that have the 30 pin dock connetor

Well, we're up and running.
I bought an iPhone lightening to hdmi adapter (£39 clas ohlson) and a hdmi convertor off eBay and it works.
I player or whatever is on my phone plays except Virgin block watching tv over 3G
iPhone 5 is on version 9.3 I think. I don't want to do the update in case it blocks this signal !
Many thanks to all and Narpy for your support and guidance.D4 HSE

Do you know how to change the region on the screens pls ?
The screen that works comes up with PAL
The one that doesn't , has power but comes up with NTSC and I think this is where my problem is.D4 HSE
