I do know the Rosen av7900 are made for the Evoque.

Hi Barton,

How do you remove the torx screws?

I'm not Barton, but your answer is.
You can buy torx screwdrivers. If your not sure what size you need buy one of these screwdriver bit sets & a multi-bit screwdriver which have all the common sizes you need.

and how do you get access to them? How to remove the plastic "U"?

I never needed to remove my seat backs in the end i just pull the wires though the headrest posts holes.using a wire coat hanger.

One more question, from where are you taking 12V and GND

Thanka

I just use the accessory socket in armrest.

Hi, felt it better to revive this old thread vs. creating a new one since this one is so close to my question. Has anyone removed the seat back from the Evoque? Does the U-trim that holds the net in place pop off safely? Looks like the 4 torx heads will be behind that trim piece.

Also, has anyone removed the armrest?

I'm going to put in non-Rosen (aka not perfect fitting) headrest monitors in about a week. Probably a Concept CLS-703 pair for use with a classic video iPod. I'll try using a coat hanger down the back of the seat and using a 12-volt plug-in adapter, but I'd prefer to remove the seatback and wire right into the 12-volt line under the armrest. Any advice on doing that is appreciated.

Seat backs are easily removed.
Just pull the plastic piece from the bottom using a spatula to unlock it towards you and then move the complete thing downwards
