  • after market head unit - R36

    so, in my infinite wisdom, i had the headunit in the car changed to a sony unit

    it's nice and fancy with carplay and digital radio and all that jazz.

    steering wheel controls work, but they can't get the reverse camera working.

    so they wanna rip out the factory camera and put in some after market unit.

    my thinking is that because the it came with dynamic guidelines, there must be some way for the camera to talk to the steering, then fed it the display unit.

    assuming that the feed is working (which is was before we ripped it out), is there a module or a black box or a witch doctor i need to make it work with the aftermarket unit?

    Yep, I think you need an Aerpro (pricey - around $200+) adaptor, or you can try this ebay style one https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sour...jfzWk33Ab5gd-r

      thanks for the link

      i asked the guy who did the install and he tells me that it's the same unit he's tried and we're getting no joy...

      any other options? $200+ is a little steep...
