    Personally I'd use an old wire hanger, cut a small hole in the top and thenpush the hanger upfrom the bottom and tie the wire to it and pull it down. Don't forget you've got to leave enough wire for the seat to be at both extremes (all the way forward and all the way back).

    By the way, where did you buyy these? Looking for aset myself. What connections do they have?

     Its possible to feed teh wires from the heardrest tubes but it will take alot of swearing bruising etc...after that its stricght down the side of the seat and under the carpet through centre console..

     got them off ebay! there £199, come with built in dvd players each side, the good thing is, they run off a radio signal, just tune in ure radio to the signal given and u can play the sound through your speakers, they come with built in speakers anway, just got to power them up with the wires, thats easy enough, can get headphones for them, come with remote controls, 7" screen, good price, come in black leather, beige or cream, full headrest with everything built in, look really nice fitted! just pop off old ones, and these go straight in!
