Default Backseat Entertainment A/V Input

Greetings,

I have a 2013 RX 350 full option with back seats entertainment two screens. At the back of center console there was A/V Input and I believe it is for the backseat screens. I want to connect a tablet to those screens so I can play a movie displaying on the screens. Is that possible? I searched the thread and I saw a lot of phone mirroring on the front Navigation system for different lexus modles but I guess my case is different. I want this for the back seats screens and I already have the A\V input built in

Any one knows how to work it out ?

If it's like the factory installed dual/split screen rear video in our 2014 Sienna which has similar AV jacks at the back of the center console, you will need an appropriate composite AV adapter cable that goes between your tablet computer and the AV jacks on the back of the center console. You'll probably use your rear video system remote control to select the AV inputs (e.g. press the "source" button) from an on-screen menu and select which of the rear screens to play it on. It should be "plug and play".

The following might help if you've got an iPad: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2809761?tstart=0

Thank you so much for your reply and yes apparently it is the same as your car and I would like to connect it to a Samsung Tablet. Could you please guide me to the right cable link on ebay or Amazon or the right name and I will search myself

Thanks

You will need an AV cable that is certified to work with your specific Galaxy Tab model. I am seeing complaints in reviews from purchasers about cables designed for older tabs not working with newer tabs.
