Rear screen delete (2 Viewers)

Has anyone tried to do a USB-C through those victory holes? Would be cool to be able to charge an iPad for the kids.

Supposedly the wires are too thin to support USB charging.

With some searching, you might be able to find a thread from years ago where someone explored power available in the screen connectors.

I used the Victory 4x4 in my 2020 LX 570.

I have the Victory 4x4 filler panels. They look nice and I am happy with them. I put some speaker grill cloth behind them so that you can't see into the back of the seat. Rear seat passengers will def want to make sure they wear seat belts cause they are very solid steel and wouldn't be nice to a head/face if an accident occurred. I sold my 2016 screens for about 1K each on eBay. Took a month or 2 for them to both sell. Not sure if the market for them is still the same but the 2016+ are very prone to getting crushed from tilting the 2nd row seats forward to aggressively.

I did exactly the same and also sold mine about a year ago for $1k. (incl. remote, covers, & headphones)
The Victory 4x4 panels are well made and work great for the LC seats.

Having now seen the metal Victory plates with the sharp edges, holes, and high bulge, I prefer the smooth plastic ones. Maybe it’s the LX/LC difference?

Edges are not sharp on the Victory 4x4 and they are not any less safe than having the screens in place.
Hopefully everyone is wearing seatbelts.

Good to know. Post #10 in this thread raised the issue.

I purchased the Victory panels a few months ago and installed some USB plugs into them. I intended to purchase a 2015 LX but the deal fell through after I had the panels and plugs ordered. So while I haven't installed them into an LX, here's what I came up with. I'll do a proper write up once I get them installed. I've been told that there's wires at the base of the seat that are sufficient for the USB plugs, both constant power and accessory power. Judging by the size of the wires on the plugs, it won't take much of a wire to do the job. I used a dremel tool with a cut off wheel to cut the panels to fit the plugs.

I used some black vinyl to cover the writing on the plugs as I wasn't a fan of the labels, it's pretty obvious what they are. Also, these plugs are not supposed to have any backlighting. No need for a red or blue light glaring at the passengers for the whole ride.

Dude. This is awesome. I’ve been researching the right USB port to put on my victory panels I think this one does it!

 

[lc200tx16]

I have some other plates, they are more stylish. I can post a pic later.. someone took off with my LC.

Are yours different than trekkboxx or victory? I need to remove my monitors to fit car seats and have a hard time stomaching $200 for my choice of metal or plastic..

 

[Fisher23]

They are like trekkboxx .. except only the lx you can have the internal USB.. on the LC there is no room behind the plate and you need the external USB.

Where’d you get them from? I have a 2017 LC200 and need to remove my screens but for the cost of $200 for a set of plates. I’m inclined to just leave them on there unless the option you found is cheaper.

Same. I don't wanna pay $200 for a piece of tin that brings nothing else to the table. Not to mention they're ugly

 

[Fisher23]

I don't remember it was years ago. Wasn't 200 for sure.
If you know someone with a 3D printer I would go that route.

 

[skivan]

@Fisher23 did you happen to remember where you got your plates and could you kindly provide a pic? i'm deciding what to do, and like others, i'm having a hard time with either metal/plastic options at $200... thanks much!

 

[lc200tx16]

I sucked it up and bought the victory plates. Not much more money than the plastic option and damn they’re thick.

 

[m12345y]

I also don’t like the fact it’s metal and the price tag; on the brighter side I managed to sell off eBay the two monitors for over $1k each

did you list them as a set or individually? I'm about to do the same!

curious too. but let's not flood the market!

 

[m12345y]

Separately and cross referenced

// okay, I lied I actually had one working and one broken so I have to list them separately. The amazing thing is I sold the broken one for a few hundred
