I have two questions related to the audio / video system. 1) The car was sold as 'reverse camera ready'. What exactly does that mean? I asked about getting a reverse camera installed, and it would cost P16,000, whereas there are cameras available on the market for as little as P1000. Is the wiring all in place just to install a camera?
it means that you can connect a reverse camera to the head unit. there's a dedicated
terminal ( RCA ) at the back of the unit, usually, with an initial "RC IN" that means Remote Camera
Input. just plug in the video cable from your reverse camera and that's it. and, aaahhh, you really
have to add wires and cables (for power supply and video) for your camera.
2) The audio / video system is supposed to have a video out to be able to have a second screen for the back of the car. How does one access that video out? Does one have to remove the stereo and plug into the back of it?
yup. you'll have to remove the HU. unless, of course, all the audio/video in/outs are
accessible in the front and the monitor of the HU is at the back ( joke :bwahaha: ). installing /
removing the HU is easier if it comes with a "mounting sleeve". the housing of the HU will just
slide in and/or out of this sleeve. check it out.
Thanks. Brian
P. S. Sorry if this is not the right place to ask these questions.
