I had a guy with a audio want this done and it ended up not working because simply the camera was not made for front facing.
Good to know thanks. Are the plugs for these types of cameras standardized or does every HU/Camera maker use different types? Asking because I'd like to look for a forward facing camera, I didn't see one on Pioneers site. They show 2, one regular and one with park distance sendors (both for backing up).

Do you know of any compatible with Pioneer?
