Default Pioneer tv install help.

I have searched through pages but nothing really helps me out.

I got a pioneer tv and the wires to connect it to the radio. I am not a novice when it comes to wiring and installing a headunit but when it comes to a tv I suck. I was wondering where I can connect my praking brake wire so that i dont have to have my car in park and the parking brake up to use it? Thanks for your help

You can buy a brake bypass box. I helped a buddy do one with a regular switch. Basically it is just looking for a open the closed loop to power up. Hope this helps.

Ok here is what I have.

one wire is green and says parking brake. The other wire says reverse gear signal input. What do both of these wire do? DO I really need to hook these two up? thanks

The reverse wire is for a back-up camera, it is not needed. As for the other one. I tapped into the e-brake wire and then wired a switch in that wire, so when the brake goes down the tv cuts off, you just flip the switch and the tv will come back on.

Sorry this is confusing on here, I wish we were in person because its actually quite simple.
