2009 Nav Hack / By-Pass for Camera
 

Hey Guys:

I asked on the audio/vid section, but it appears more read this section so I thought I would repost over here.

I've been searching for a few days and haven't located what I'm looking for. I did read and appreciate the thread that bdl99 posted:

Plug and Play Bypass Kit (DVD, NAV and backup Camera) Discussion with the wire cut link but this is for 2010+ and I have a 2009:

I'd rather do what I did with my Lexus IS to save a bit of $$$. They have a Nav by-pass similiar to bd99s kit, but a lot of people, including myself, did a Nav hack with cutting a wire and grounding another behind the HU for vid in motion. My goal is to connect my rear view cam to the aux input in the center console via this same method. I connected my cam last night and it worked well....as long as the e-brake was up one notch. Of course, I don't want drive with e-brake on, so I'm hoping someone can direct me to which wires to cut/slice etc or direct me to any links to a hack.

Thanks,

Paul :tiphat:

Over 80 views and nobody knows how to achieve this? I figured there would be someone with an '09 that has done this.... :(

(cryin' inside)

Does this help?

Thank you, but not really. I'm trying to avoid paying several hundred $$$ for something I know can be done for free with a hack. I may end up pulling the HU and reading a schematic on the wiring/harness. It maybe close to the posted '10.

Any luck? I've got a 2009 I'd like to cut the wires on and insert a switch similar to the posted 2010+

i say look at the G37 they have a back up cam right? Get that and install it, but make sure that ur navy has the input i wouldn't know i have a glove box instead. if not then a cam to the video input and there u go.

That may not have helped him, but it helped me. Thanks! :)
