more pictures
Here are some more pics of install. Also you have to press Aux when in Reverse, but I am trying to figure out how to automatically switch to Aux by getting power to the aux image circuit when I move to revers, if anyone has any other way of doing this it would be helpful.

Price of Mod
I paid 230.00 because I had the wiring done and the camera wire routed to the center console, so 130.00 parts and 100 for the labor I had the shop do. But if you have time on your hands, this is not that hard of an install.

I was think of doing one of these http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/INFIN...fAudioQ5fVideo but I want to try and do a easy wire first before I spend that kind of money.

definitely looks great! given that it's a CCD camera you went the right way, it will give you a far superior image.
as far as designing an "auto switcher" that shouldn't be too tough. i will look at the shop manuals but one thing i can't remember offhand is when you press the "aux" button, i know it goes to the image source but if you press it again does it revert back to the radio? i'm drawing a blank. the operation of the button will determine how to wire up a switching device....i'll have to check when i head home.
