Reversing camera installation

Dear all,

I am seeking a genuine advice regarding the installation of a reversing camera on my recently purchased RRS HSE 06 Reg Romini Red. I was just wondering what camera/device to buy (and where) and if it possible to get it installed to synchronise with my existing RRS screen.

Secondly, I noticed that there is no TV icon on my touchscreen, is there anyway I can fix this?

I would appreciate your sincere advice and looking forward to hearing from you all.

Thank you.

Thanks Sparky,

Do you mean getting the GVIF and a camera installed would synchronise the rear view images on my RRS screen?

Would the GVIF also allow me to watch TV on my screen as well?

If you get a TV tuner and receiver, then yes it will allow that option Thumbs Up ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i

The cheap GVIF from HIDS4U interupts the sat nav screen and will patch the reversing camera image onto the center screen whenever reverse is selected (using reversing light as trigger for example).

If you get the slightly more expensive GVIF it allows additional composite feeds (TV, DVDs CD player etc).

Would would have to purchase those components seperately though. Thumbs Up RRS gone
