Hi Guys,
I am the new owner of a breeze coloured BF mk2 xr6t ute, and I am looking at what I will need to put a reverse camera on the setup I have. The previous owner has already installed some components, which look to be made up of ASL upgrades. It has a colour screen, the BV2600UA DVD player running through what I believe to be a single input RGB kit. It also has a Dick Smith Electronics 12volt digital set top box tucked away next to the RGB kit, under where the passenger airbag would be if it were so optioned. This gets its signal from a powered antenna in the rear window, and feeds into the front video input of the DVD player. Questions are as follows; Looking at the photos, does anyone know if a forum member owned this ute previous to me? and if so, did you ever have the TV working? It always says "No signal", I tried rescanning for stations, but no luck( I wonder if the tint is affecting the signal???) Any Ideas how I can rig up a rear camera using the equipment I already have, or will I have to shell out for a "2 input RGB Kit"? Does anyone have a rear camera setup on their ute, and do you find it really useful? Does anyone know what video formats the DVD player accepts? I tried to load up some various video files from my computer and load them in on both a dvd and memory stick, but so far I can only get audio file to work. (I can only see the folders pertaining to audio files, not the video files I tried...avi and wmv) If anyone can be of assistance, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks Doogs82 |

thanks fadi, im on the other side of the city, so I might drop in in the next few weeks to give you look.
If by chance I did have the single input rgb kit, roughly what would it cost me to upgrade to the dual input version to hook a camera into? |
