I ordered one of these but haven't got around to fitting it yet.
Do you think it would work off a switch instead of the reverse light live? I think it may be too annoying if it cut the music off every time I reverse so maybe a switched set up would suit better?

Hi

I have an xtrons unit in now. Which port or socket does the
Camera connect too? I want to make sure I can connect it up
With my older model xtrons.

Thanks.

I think mine has a label on it saying rear view input or something along those lines, I have the instruction booklet at home I can check wire colours for you if you need it. I could even copy it and email it if required.

lThanks Stuc,looked at your picture and you seem to have the td 713 same as mine? I will have a look to see if it has
the same wires as yours. I would appreciate an email though, thanks.

Stuc, does yours have a working GPS? Mine has the option on the screen, but no inputs
for gps antennae. I have found the software for it, but without a GPS connection, no point in
using it.

No mine does not, but it has the navi button on the front, but when pressed it says "does not support gps", i think its a generic ubit which can have extras put in depending on model no.
My phone has a good GPS on it so I use that with the bluetooth on and the voice comes through the speakers.
I will try and get some pics across tonight.

Mine says the same. I like the bluetooth speaker satnav idea. I will use that
with google maps. Thanks.
