Installation Procedure

1.Identify the polarity of the dome light circuit and set the switch on the bottom of the overhead monitor housing.

2.Test fit the overhead monitor system on the ceiling of the vehicle, verifying it is not going to interfere with the safe operation of the vehicle.

3.Once the mounting location of the overhead monitor system has been determined, carefully mark the location with masking tape.

4.Lower the vehicles headliner down to see if a roof support beam is available to screw the mounting bracket to. If a support beam is not available to screw into, use a ¾” piece of plywood cut to the appropriate size. Attach the plywood to the roof of the vehicle using silicone allowing adequate drying time.

5.Screw the mounting bracket in the vehicle. DOUBLE CHECK THE LENGTH OF THE SCREWS PRIOR TO MOUNTING THE BRACKET.

6.Cut a 1hole in the headliner along the backside of the mounting bracket for the cables to pass through.

7.Route cables through the hole to the predetermined location of the AV source(s).

8.Identify the dome light wires in the vehicle and connect them to the corresponding dome light wires on the overhead monitor system.

9.Plug in the AV cables and power harness into the overhead monitor system.

10.Carefully hold the overhead monitor system to the mounting bracket aligning the mounting holes while screwing in the screws. (Make sure the wires and cables are not in the way while mounting the monitor).

11.Connect the Red wire of the power harness to the Accessory wire in the ignition harness.

12.Ground the Black wire of the power harness to a clean ground spot.

Note: Make sure you keep the ground wire of the model and video source as short as possible to prevent any type of unwanted vehicle noise.
