DIY: Kenwood DNX6140 installed in my 370Z with Sirius and back up Cam (AK370Z)

Nice install man. Question on the camera. Does it show the correct reverse view or is it backwards? The quality looks pretty good on that camera and for the price,

Nice install man. Question on the camera. Does it show the correct reverse view or is it backwards? The quality looks pretty good on that camera and for the price, I am considering getting one to add to my Kenwood as I haven't done that yet. I need to get that and XM (not sure if I want that or Sirius as they are both the same company now). I have my NAVI Antenna under the radio console so nothing is showing. Right where your gauges are top middle of dash I had a gap that I slid the antennas into. Not a single problem with signal.

I will check it for you. Take a look at the videos. I think it's correct reverse.


I know you were saying something about this text feature. Do you know how this works?(sorry too lazy to check the manual).

Welcome Matt . Make yourself comfortable here.

I don't know myself as I haven't hooked up my BT module yet.

I am waiting to get the accessories all together before tearing apart my dash again. But last I heard you can type and respond on the screen of the NAVI to text messages.

Thanks to you, Russell (I hope I got it right ), I looked into this topic. As you can see in the videos, the reverse cam image was flipped. So, I open up the manual and find this great feature:



You can actually mirror the R-Cam image! I simply switched to "mirror on"(it's off from factory) and now I see all the license plates correctly on my screen. The more I learn about the unit, the more I get amazed.

So folks, keep asking question(s) because the more questions you ask, the more I learn!
