How will you connect the TV sound to the radio? I hung a PVC tube under the motorhome to stow the sewer hose. Ran the genny to and from the campground. Still need to change the engine and genny oil. I received new reefer hinge bushing in the mail today. Now I need to install them. There are always more things to do than I've done, I guess I'll never run out of activities.
In my case, I have an AUX connection on the face of the dash radio. I used a cable that has the RCA (red and white connectors) on one end, and the "walkman" sized (IIRC 1/8" headphone jack) on the other. I plugged the RCA cables into the audio out jack of the TV, and the headphone jack side into the AUX input to the stereo. If you do not have an AUX jack, but DO have a cassette player, You can still improvise a "redneck" solution. I did this in my old Safari by using the same cable as I used on the current TV, had a female to female headphone jack adapter, and used a cassette adapter like you would use to play a portable CD player through the cassette deck.
For the computer, I had a cord with the male side headphone jacks on both ends, and used a run of the mill extension cord to be able to reach the stereo. My large PC sits in the footwell in front of the passenger seat.
I will make a quick video of how to set this up when I get home from work tonight, and post it on my Youtube channel. I'll post a link when it's up.
