Expect a few have noticed that various LR dealers are bashing out genuine Land Rover FL2 LCD headrest system kits at prices ranging from £250 -350. Considering that I toyed with having them fitted upon purchase of my FL2, then listed at over £1200 for the pair, I wonder what is now afoot.

Excess stock. In the current economic climate, if stock is not selling...

If you look on ebay the dealers are cheaply selling excess stocks of all accesories like wood/aluminium facia kits, wheels, side protection bars/step and sports styling kits-some are still a bit greedier than others though you will notice!!! |

I purchased the Factory LR2 video kit a few weeks ago off EBAY, from an LR dealer at a significant discount. I am actually very pleased with the setup, including the lack of a DVD player. Another feature of this kit is that it will play video from a 2gb or smaller SD card, so you can put a movie or two on there and not have to plug in anything. Also, if a portable blue ray, or some other format becomes popular, I'm not tied to DVD technology.

Anyone any idea what 'material' my headrests are? I've got an MY09 XS and on the docs it says "SCUBA/Ebony cloth leather"

Bought one of these last week on ebay and the instructions seem very simple. In practice i found that i had to take the seat upholstery off the backrest of the seat to fit the screens properly . This was not easy but also not impossible, just a bit of swearing and sore fingers. has anyone else found they had to do this. |

There's an excellent guide from Chris8of9 which I used. Didn't need to remove back of seat but I have small hands and with a bit of patience, I could reach up and pull the connector down. Allow 3 hours for complete install.

I think these must be different kits. There is no SD card function, just AV inputs and no remote control (unless you are refering to the IR headphones?
