Yes fitted the headrest monitors myself ... headrests just pull out.

You then just need to pop the seat backs off - held by 2 plastic plugs at the base of each one - best to use a trim removal tool for this.

Then just run the wires through the existing holes - install the new headrests - and then there is a small gap in the corner where you can fish the wires too.

One monitor is slaved off the other so they can both watch the same film - but will both work independantly as well.

Next job is to permanently power them off the wires going to the rear ciggy lighter.

Welcome aboard.

Nice motor and as everyone has said great engine too. Both my 3.0d 'loons were taken to the Ring for a good thrashing....oo'er misses.

My bro-in-law has the same headrests in an E46 and they look a bit out of place and large. Look spot on in the X3.

I also contributed to the banter so not finger pointing but content became all about others & not the OP
