2010 GL450

Newbie with questions

Just purchased an CPO 2010 GL450 with Premium PKG and Appearance PKg. It will be my wife's primary vehicle. It's a beautiful car. Only thing missing for our family is a DVD. The car came with RES (prep).

Question: Does RES Prep mean that it is pre wired to the headrest area? Can I just purchase the DVD screens used on this forum and hook them up? Or is it "complicated"? I did a search but could not find a simple answer. Thanks guys.

Typically, the parts department would be able to bring up a parts listing for kits like that.
