Default Camera setup for front and back? Advice is Welcomed!

I was inquiring about setting up my scion TC 07 to have a front IR camera mounted in the grill and a backup camera (possibly also IR.) and having it hooked up to one screen or add it to a the double din radio TFT.

My question is of what kind screen and or hardware, software i need to get this accomplished.

If anyone had any suggestions and links, or comments please feel free.


I appreciate your time in answering my question.

I think any screen with camera option will work, I know with my screen you can choose between different outputs but u would need a separete screen. Clarion has the 2 zone option

i have a rear view camera .. and if you wanted to use a camera in the front, you could just use one of the video inputs. the rear camera will be easy to find, but finding a mobile camera that ISNT reversed, now thats the kicker, cause i was thinking the same thing. . lol..

i have an avic d3 and a boyo rear view camera and they work great together

well... to start off... what i would do... is put your back up camera to come on when you reverse, with the D3 unit... thats relatively easy...

for the front.. like said before... you can put it on a video in... or if you already have a separate video in (such as a PS 2 or 3, Xbox, nintendo what have you) you can get a thing called a source selector... that way you can choose what it on the tv.. be it your game console or your front tv...

now... for a camera that not reversed... they make a few... you just have to look for them... i know of a couple low end brands that make them like that... but you get what you pay for...
