It can be done but people find it easier to fit the D4 screen.

I’ve just fitted the D3 sat nav out of a HSE.
I’ve got the fakra lead and camera leads in and a camera to try.
Don’t fancy changing it yet.
Is a 2010 RRS screen the same as a D4 screen.

@ R1wilky

If you use the search button you will find out that you need a additional unit to connect on a D3 screen..
Imho it makes no sence to repeat here again what is allready extensively covered before here on this forum Wink Look for GVIF

You can find this then https://media.disco3.co.uk/gallery/albums/...lation.pdf

D4 screens, the early ones (2010) indeed rss included) do not need such a unit and are therefore a popular and easy upgrade

See linked topic from aja4x4

Reversing cam

Hi R1 wilky,
You can if you want view the camera on your D3 screen via the hidden menu, it`s what I do when needed and is ideal for working on sites pulling multiple trailers.

Regards Dave.

Hi,
To access the hidden menu/ screen you press the at the top centre of the home screen display for around 6 seconds then press the left hand hard button for 3 seconds and a key pad will come up, press 753 and the menu will show. Then you can select video and view your camera once it`s plugged in.
Hope this helps.

Regards Dave.

I didn’t think it worked like that.
That way you can add 4x4 and other features.

Hi,
Sadly the hidden menu does not give you the 4x4 screen, to get that you ether need to cut a wire so it thinks it`s a Range Rover ( loads of info here on how to do that) or get the software updated.
The menu does give you the video inputs and a host of other information.

Regards Dave

ive been on the hidden screen and you cant change ant settings.
on the screen it asks pal or ntsc so i guess its just swap between them.
also am i best off having software updated before i cut wire 4 and add a switch.

not sure what S/w update you a talking of.

The pal or ntsc switch is only available while in the hidden menu, and is not remembered.

If you want automatic operation, when reverse is selected, you need the correct camera

Have you read through this thread
https://www.disco3.co.uk/forum/hifi-teleph...74474.html

Tells you all you need to know about RR mod and reverse camera, and what does and doesn't work on the screen. Not all functions work.

Mine after
RR mod, camera from Amazon, Fakra cable from Club shop CCF edit auto switches when reverse selected

It’s a wire inside you cut.

If you unplug the front 2 button panel and then reset power it up, you can test out the effect
