With the Limited Visibility, I was thinking of installing a Dual Camera (Front and Rear) to assist with Parking etc. Crutchfield said this system will support 2-Cameras. Also for Audio/Nav/Phone etc. Has anyone installed a Camera System to you car??

I have a Kenwood touch screen radio with back up camera, navigation, phone etc. in my Hot Rod. The back up camera helps a lot when I have the convertible top up. 98627

Was thinking along the same lines Larry. I was only concerned about a rear camera though and quite a few systems will take 1 camera. Had been looking at the Pioneer line up.

Do you know if it will work with 2-Cameras?? I concerned with Parking and Texas Roads. One in the Rear for backing out, and one for the Nose. It is way out there and low.

Larry - I agree. I don't know that I will ever use it, but I am thinking a front facing camera mounted right behind the grill as well. I am sure that in most cases by the time I see anything it will be too late to react, however it is one of those things I would rather have and not need than need and not have. The thing I struggle with the most is where to place a screen that is large enough for my vision but subtle enough to not look like a media room!
Thanks

I have two speakers in each door panel. I started with one in each door panel and realized the GPS "talks" in the front speakers only. The good part is I thought a head and ran the wires into the door for front speakers if I every wanted/needed them.

Larry, yes the radio I have will support two cameras.

Does anyone know of a radio system that would support 3 cameras. reason I ask is I have been looking at RV parking cameras and screens? I am trying not to run side mirrors and rear view mirror. I want a shaved side look. No door handles and mirrors. Looking to mount mini cameras on the sides and the rear to substitute the mirrors

I like the concept (shaved), however you may want to check on the legalities of no mirrors. I could be wrong (as in most cases I am), but I believe most states require at least a drivers side mirror and then if the rear window is blocked a passenger side mirror as well. Please don't take this as gospel, but do check.
