i have a clarion vrx765vd in a 2003 lincoln ls. I got it professionally installed so they had to ground the video to the parking brake.how do i remove this from the parking brake so that i can ground it to the chassis and watch movies while driving?

look for newely placed wire somewhere round your parking brake. hopefully it will be for the deck and screw it to the chassie.

the wire is "Grass green"

and it goes to your Parking brake light.... one way to get around it is to press on the P. brake until it turns on the light... if there is no resistance than drive like that...

I have a VRX925VD. When I first installed it I didn't hook the grassgreen wire up to anything. Just snip it before it goes to you Parking brake and tapp it into one of the 2 black ground wires, and Presto! Moves while drving :D

I'm sure there is bare metal behind your radio somewhere... Just make sure you havea good connection and you're set... :-)
