There will be plenty of pics... let me see if I can find a teaser shot.


EDIT:
EVERYBODY should subscribe to this magazine. It is AMAZING. The whole thing is filled with cool info, cars, etc...

[Jugdish]

well?

[gtcompscientist]

It's been delayed... the surprise is not within my control unfortunately. I am, however, about to go poke around in the trunk and look at the Rear-View Control Unit, and see if it is possible to hack.

[Nissan4LIFE]

Why would you delay it...thats it, YOU'RE FIRED

[gtcompscientist]

I can give you another teaser shot... I just don't have the actual shot at this point.

Let me go find it...



Look under DIY tech.

[Nissan4LIFE]

Awwwwww thats just wrong...

[gtcompscientist]

Sorry... didn't mean to upset the masses. Keep paying attention and hopefully soon I will have a way to do video through the Rear-View camera.

I haven't been around for a while, but I wanted to let everybody know that I have some bad news about the rear-camera video hack. It looks like it's not going to happen. I think that it's possible, but I think that the cost is WAAAAY too much to make it work right. The navigation hack was nice because it was cheap. Just to let anybody who was interested know that I have given up on it. But I will keep tinkering with the electronics and such to find more interesting things to do.

BTW, if anybody comes across Navi unit in a junkyard for a reasonable price (read: CHEAP), let me know. I would love to be able to take one apart to work on it, but I am not taking the one in my car apart, and I'm not shelling out for a new one from the factory.

No worries man...you do good work and I for one appreciate it a lot. I found a company that does make interfaces and I put in another post that it was $250 so you could get video and then I talked to the guy and our navigation system is soo complex its going to run $450 and I have to bring the car in for them to install it. its at the following website: TV and NAV 2 GO

I myself is going to wait now because I could almost buy an entire standalone setup for that price and I already started with the visor monitor for $65. Whatever you can do Charles will always be good so take your time. Thanks

let's bring this back to life! muhaha any updates?

[Chayce]

Well...I had the Hack installed today by a local Sound shop and it works perfectly. Thanks to all of you who worked on this but particulary GTCOMPSCIENTIST. The switch is located directly under the AC controls. To have it professionally done cost me all of $80!!

Haven't seen GT on for a while now. He probably got his Titan and is having too much fun with it

[Sol2.5sl]
