A regular client recently stopped by our Midlothian location. We’d previously done an audio upgrade to his Harley-Davidson, and now he was interested in adding video to his 2017 Mercedes Maybach S550.
The new Mercedes models include active headrest restraints, which means the headrests are actually part of the safety system when there’s a rear impact. Due to that, replacing the headrests with new models that include video, like we normally would, is not possible. For situations just like this, though, Audiovox has released a new category of “seat back” video monitors: the AVX-SB10UHD, a set of monitors made to attach to the headrest brackets, without impeding the effectiveness of the factory safety system.
The AVX-SB10UHD monitors are equipped with DVD, WiFi and an Android operating system, so our client’s kids are now able to stream video like Netflix, play video games and more. Unlike universal kits that just strap around the headrests with wires going everywhere, these are custom- installed with everything hidden and neat.
Looking to add video to your Mercedes or other luxury vehicle without needlessly modifying the interior? Stop by one of our Richmond, VA-area locations in Mechanicsville or Midlothian to see what custom options we have for you. You also can contact us here.
Do you sell and install dash cams? I have ford explorer
We do! Mostly Momento and Blackvue, but occasionally a Thinkware as well. Swing by when you have a chnace and we’d be happy to go over the options with you!
Several questions: 1. What equipment is installed and where with Drone Mobile?
2. Do you install security/alarm systems for vehicles?
3. Do you install road noise deadening panels? (Already bought them. Just need installation).
Good Morning! Those are all services that we offer, but pricing varies dramatically based on the vehicle, which exact factory packages you currently have, etc. Best bet for sure is to come by one of our locations when you have an opportunity. We can then look at the vehicle and put together what would work best for your needs. Thanks!
