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

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/D2203D-EONON-7-LCD-...=item53e1fc917f

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

      Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.

      Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.

      Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
