Group Buy/Interest - 2011 Rear View Camera

Osiris · 11-30-2010, 10:16 AM

Radio Shack has various different buttons (small & large) that could be used for the bypass kit. Just need the kit

I think the buttons are the only thing that will be different on car to car because everyone has different options and placement won't be the same for all. So if Brian could provide the harness/kit, i'm sure we could manage to wire some buttons in.

The seat heater switch would work! It is a rocker front to back with central neutral. The front position could be NAV VSS on and the central position off (for input) and the rear position camera on!
This is an image of the aftermarket switch for the fog light sold by the Zstore

These parts might work though. They are the factory seat heater switches.

I prefer the switch option as well.

remote for me. thx.

^ I like the Dual Pole approach. The DVD Park Brake ground wire could be reversed if ever a 'dealer' issue arose, but it is highly unlikely.
To watch a DVD, simply engage the VSS bypass and the vehicle is ready to watch a DVD in motion OR enter NAV info!

warp speed ahead Mr. Sulu! (Brian!)

WRT the switch... someone with mild electrical design ability might be able to make a small circuit board with the correct outputs to control these options intelligently. Otherwise, I believe the heated seat switch is the correct on off on solution. Other than the illuminated top of the switch indicating a seat heater!...

I will look to create a harness with a connector that will allow connection to the remote unit or physical switch. That way I can offer you guys the choice with common components.

Speaking of disabling things...how about disabling the signal to the Nav unit that tells it the Roadsters's top is open? This disables the voice recognition even if the car is stopped.

i would be up for it. what is the kit going to be like after all the input from everyone? last i checked it was a remote, then a 2 way switch, so where does it stand now?

dixon cider · 12-02-2010, 01:22 AM

(whispers...) remote

wheee! · 12-02-2010, 07:55 AM

(shouts) SWITCH!!!!

wheee! · 12-02-2010, 07:59 AM

Maybe its time for a new thread to get an idea of how many people are looking for the NAV DVD hack harness and for which version: remote

or switch

.

What do you think Brian? Jeff?
