If it helps, I too want to add the reversing camera and would be happy to hop across to Devon if that makes the trip, installation or price easier for two?

Was it not easier to take the option "reverse camera" when you bought it?

I'm not sure how you guys want this installed but:
- camera can be obtained from site sponsor hids4u
- IIRC you can connect the camera to the head unit with special connectors available from the site store, maybe ask member Wiggs for some advice
- if need be you can install a GVIF unit (hids4u) to be able to switch different video sources
- fitting of the camera and running the wires is easy enough, only a little soldering needed
- I'm not sure about connecting to the head unit, haven't done that myself but there are 'howto s' elsewhere on the site

For proper advice, send Ian at hids4u a pm. I went down the GVIF route myself and I can recommend him any time.

Regards

There are a number of guys wanting to get reverse cameras installed.

1) Via the units from Hids4u, which adds extra video inputs into the sat nav
2) By getting a camera and running the cable to the sat nav

I am going down option 2 (Got my camera from Wiggs), but there are some on ebay

Just search the forum and you will find heaps of info

This one should help
