Abstract: An audio-visual system for a motor vehicle includes multiple viewing/listening stations, one station for each passenger. Each station includes a video monitor mounted in the back of the seat immediately in front of the user and includes an audio headphone terminal in a control panel adjacent each viewing station. The control panel includes a multiple position switch, which is connected to a distribution box for switching between multiple program sources for transmission to each viewing station. Accordingly, the user at each viewing station can independently switch between the program sources.
