Does anyone know how i can bypass my handbrake cable as i cannot watch the tv wen i am going along. There is a green cable comin out of the power unit of the tv tuner and this is supposed to connect up to the handbrake cable. I really dont want to do this if i dnt have to. Does ne one know how i could have the T.v's working whilst i am going along.

All you gotta do is connect that green wire to ground

I suggest you take the green wire to a switch then from the switch to ground though just incase you ever get pulled by coppers, you can just flick it off.

Agreed! its not very sensible to watch tv and drive even if its for the passenger its still very distracting.
