Tips on Installing a Rear View Camera

[Jayman]

Quick question guys; Can our factory navigation screens be adapted to display video for a backup cam? Anyone know?

I have mine working. I have the pioneer Avic-8200NEX with the RP5-gm11 adapter and my rear view camera works fine.

Unfortunately my rear speakers dont work and the volume on my fronts is lower than a whisper. .. the aftermarket radio install saga continues!!

You have an aftermarket radio. I was asking about installing a camera for use with factory navigation system.

Only if it has a video input on the back.

That's kinda the point of my question. Figured someone would know without me having to pull it apart...

My point is, if it doesn't have a DVD player it likely doesn't have video input.

I do have the factory rear DVD.

The player isn't in your main deck.

You're probably pretty busy. Perhaps you can redirect me where I can read up or find info on this. These tiny lines of communication will take forever at this rate LOL
