INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS  
About the Installation  
The installation of the OHM102/OHM153 overhead monitor system requires experience in both  
mechanical and electrical procedures. If you do not posses the necessary experience or tools to  
attempt this installation, contact a local Clarion dealer for assistance. Improper installation can  
result in damage to the monitor and/or the vehicle.  
This manual provides basic installation tips and techniques to aid in the installation of the  
OHM102/OHM153 overhead monitor systems. The installation instructions are not vehicle  
specific, it’s a guideline on how to perform the installation.  
Prior to Beginning Installation  
.
• Verify that all of the functions of the vehicle work properly (i.e.: power windows, power  
door locks, air conditioning, Dome-lights, etc.)  
.
.
• Verify the monitor will not interfere with the operation of the sunroof, if applicable.  
• Test the location of the overhead monitor system to ensure it will not interfere with the  
safe operation of the vehicle.  
.
• Determine the location of the AV source(s).  
Installation Procedure  
1. Identify the polarity of the dome light circuit and set the switch on the bottom of the overhead  
monitor housing. The switch allows you to switch between a positive or negative Dome-Light  
input signal.  
2. Test the overhead monitor system on the ceiling of the vehicle, verifying it’s not going to  
interfere with the safe operation of the vehicle.  
3. Once the mounting location of the overhead monitor system has been determined, carefully  
mark the location with masking tape.

4. Lower the vehicle’s headliner down to see if a roof support beam is available to screw the  
mounting bracket onto. If a support beam is not available to screw into, use a ¾” piece of plywood  
cut to the appropriate size. Attach the plywood to the roof of the vehicle using silicone allowing  
adequate drying time.  
5. Screw the mounting bracket in the vehicle. DOUBLE CHECK THE LENGTH OF THE  
SCREWS PRIOR TO MOUNTING THE BRACKET.  
6. Cut a 1” hole in the headliner along the backside of the mounting bracket for the cables to pass  
through.  
7. Route cables through the hole to the predetermined location of the AV source(s).  
8. Identify the dome light wires in the vehicle and connect them to the corresponding dome light  
wires on the overhead monitor system.  
9. Plug in the AV cables and power harness into the overhead monitor system.  
10. Carefully hold the overhead monitor system to the mounting bracket aligning the mounting  
holes while screwing in the screws. (Make sure the wires and cables are not in the way while  
mounting the monitor.)  
11. Connect the Red wire of the power harness to the Accessory wire in the ignition harness.  
12. Ground the Black wire of the power harness to a clean ground spot.  
Note: Make sure you keep the ground wire of the OHM102/OHM153 and video source as short  
as possible to prevent any type of unwanted vehicle noise.
