| Found a super deal on a deck down here in the states.
I want to bypass the ebrake switch( i want the screen on while car is driving)
also want to bypass the reverse camera switch(switch only allows camera to be used when car is in reverse but i want it to be useable when car is driving) not as a reverse camera tho | |

quoted for obvious knowledge. for the e-brake switch, just hooke the wire up to ground, that is what completes the circuit(same type of deal that turns on the e-brak light on your dash) For reverse camera, hook those wires up to a switch, so you can activate it on-the-fly | |

| i dont want a switch tho,
the ebrake one i knew i just needed to ground i was pretty sure.
but the reverse one usually wires to reverse lights, so could i just wire it to an accesory? thats on when keys on? | |

| yes, but why would you want the camera to be on all the time. seems kinda redundant. | |

| My guess and it is just a hunch but maybe it isn't going to be a reverse camera?
I think I pitched an idea like this to my mom to help her sleep at night. | |

I think I pitched an idea like this to my mom to help her sleep at night. correct im taking my new car, which my mom and the bank currently own, down here to the states again this year and as the mountain roads are all single lane highway my mom shelled out the cash to buy a cew RHD car for me, and a camera to hook up to my new deck, which she also bought, because rhd in the city,plus she isnt to worried about but we can all agree driving by yourself on single lane highway trying to pass a semi in RHD is a little dangerous becasue I am incompetent | |
