Rear seat entertainment

When I ordered the car, the rear seat entertainment screens weren't available - so I'm trying to retrofit them now. I found some on ebay that seem plug and play (see below). However, when I look at that plug-in area in my car, I can't seem to get it to push in when trying it with my hand. Am I missing something?

I believe those ports only work with OEM parts.

Seems like these would work? But should that port open when I push on it or only with the correct part? Just making sure my port will actually be able to open to put this in.

There is a built-in magnet that releases the opening.

That's what I figured, thank you!

Were you able to get it in? Show pics of the feature - I might consider it on mine for the kids. :-)

I didn't buy the system yet - was hoping someone else already had and could provide feedback
