Reversing Camera/screen

[wgoos]

ive been looking for dvd/nav lcd screens on ebay & have decided i want to get a reversing camera to go with it that will also operate through the same screen, i checked out all the reversing cameras on ebay & they mostly come with there own screen or center mirror screen which im not interested in, i want to be able to operate the reversing camera, audio/dvd & nav from the 1 unit, i've already found the dvd screen i want to buy just not sure what it needs to have to connect a reversing camera to it.

anybody done this before?

Yes, I have one 3.5" mounted in my roof where the old sunroof switches lived. doesn't stick down, next to the digital boost gauge

also have the ability to switch on my other two 8" to the reverse camera as well, thru a video distribution amp/switcher

gotta have a way to display it ?

just not sure what it needs to have to connect a reversing camera to it.

Check headunit for AV inputs, the round yellow RCA plugs. Most reverse cameras will have a plug for power and one of these RCA plugs for the video.

Sounds like you have a lot going on in this car, happen to have any pics or a build thread up anywhere?

Don't know if it's of any interest but MEA:SA has been picking up lately and toward the end of the year are looking at a few of the vic competitors and judges coming over to run some SQ comps, the more local interest the better.

alot of people may bag it but i have the feb 2010 model dubble din D2203D EONON 7" LCD TV CAR MP3 DVD PLAYER DVB-T USB SD

and love it the reverse camera i go off ebay as well it attatches to the number plate so you dont have to drill holes ,

the only problem i have with it i cant find anywere that sells digital car antenna that picks up australian digital tv !! but DONT go there earlyer model with standard tv as the unit only lasted 3 days before i had to sent it back but the one i have in now has been going 3 months with out a hickup and runs much faster than the earlyer model in my mates car

as i said if you do your research youll find alot of people bag them (i did too with the first model i got ) so its your choice if you wanna risk it and try your luck .

but my one i have i love it

alright thanks allot I will check out a few reversing camera attachment wires & find the right headunit to get it all working, just wanted to assure myself that it was possible to do, with technology these days it's hard to get everything working compatible with each other, just have to be sure.. Cheers.

The build/photos is being compiled to Audiocontrols website in USA first , but hope to finish it for Autosalon in a few months. body kit etc still needs some paint

I'd be game to judge the shows in SA , more then qualified after more then 20 years in the industry in USA ..lol

easily done, you can find just the camera on its own. Ebay is your friend!
