Dean Caudle Posted April 2, 2013 Report Share Posted April 2, 2013 (edited) I just got a 2013 SEl Edge and am considering installing aftermarket DVD headrests myself via the cig lighter outlet so really my only concern is how to go about removing the back of the seats to get the cable ran down through the posts. Is there a video out there somewhere ford edge specific so i can see how to take the back of the seat off to get the cable ran through the seat? Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated!!

xK317Hx Posted April 2, 2013 Report Share Posted April 2, 2013 Grab lower back panel and pull out. You will hear a pop. Then slide the panel down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimi_ke2 Posted May 27, 2013 Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 The dvd headrest is very easy to install when compared with overhead car dvd and in dash car dvd. See my car dvd headrest, it is easy to install. I just fixed it on the headrest. It just like a tablet pc headrest dvd. I can remove it by any time.

Elotrain Posted May 28, 2013 Report Share Posted May 28, 2013 (edited) I'm in the same situation as the OP, I have a portable dvd set that I'd love to permanently hide the wires, I just want a little confirmation before I start pulling on the back of the seat panel and break all the clips. I just pull on the bottom of the panel, outwards until it unclips, and then slide down? Update: It really is that easy. On the bottom of the back panel, there is two screw-looking fasteners that just pop out, and the back panel slides downwards. You can't mess it up. I hid the power wires to my portable headrest players there, so it's easier to install them on a whim. Permanent headrest DVD would be the better option, but I can't in good conscious waste money when my portable works so well.

Carguybill Posted February 1, 2014 Report Share Posted February 1, 2014 I have a 2014 Edge, Limited if that makes a difference, and it looks to me like the seat back is sewn in also I don't see the 2 screws mentioned. What am I missing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carguybill Posted February 13, 2014 Report Share Posted February 13, 2014 OK, I solved my problem without removing the back of the seat. I purchased some Pex tubing at Home Depot that was 3/8" od and just under 1/4" ID and, after removing the factory headrests, pushed the tubing down through the headrest guides and was able after just a couple of attempts to get the tube to exit out the bottom corners of the seat back after pulling out the small cloth tabs. I did have to pay attention to the natural curvature of the tubing and be sure to have the tubing curved toward the outside. This worked surprisingly easly. After getting the tubing in I ran a light rope (heavy string) through the tube and then removed the tube. Did this for both sides and when ready to install the headrest DVD I securely taped the wires coming out of the DVD posts to my string and gently pulled and pushed the wires until they came out the bottom of the seatback. Worked for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
