Any interest in a front camera?

Since I DD my Cat, I found that could use a front camera, for parking situations. Backing in is not always an option, so here goes...

I've sourced a camera, switch and have researched a clear path, into the network. A single splice, will be required, for access to video signal. Video return will be the simple addition of a spade terminal and a small bit of tape.

You can power the cam, off ACC (always on, when car is on), or run additional wire, to the switch, for cam power, when selected.

Waiting on the switch.

Installation, of the camera, requires dropping the bumper valance and engine inspection cover (like during an oil change). Really, just the front bumper valance. Running the required wiring, into the cabin. Install the switch, in a location of your choice. Remove radio bezel, screen and radio module. Access to the main radio connector, is required.

Anyway, that gives you an overview, of what you're getting into (or your installer). Let me know if you're interested and I'll get some supplies on order.

I'll post pix,of my installation, when finished.

If it has a native reverse cam, I can make an exploit, for it.

If it doesn't, some programming is necessary. Not it!

Awesome idea, but honestly if I’ve got to manually flick a switch to view I’d just as well back in, which I do all the time anyway.

Are you doing a kit? Or just schematics/part list?

Planning on offering kits, if there's interest. Been burned before, with talkers and no takers. It's cool, though. Many of the parts I stock end up in other private builds. One off gizmos.

I need to cobble some parts together.

I'll make it as simple as possible, for both end users and installers.

I'm good for at least one, up to three depending on price point.

I’m interested in one for my ‘19 Hellcat and one for my ‘19 Ram Classic. Will they work in those two vehicles? Will they be top notch equipment that produces really good pictures?

You can switch power, to the cam, using a dpdt switch, or you can tap into acc power, like the cig lighter, and cam will be on, with ignition.

One pole, of the switch, is for toggling cameras.

I'll work up a diagram, for the class :)

Switch toggles the camera signal feed.

Press, for front cam.

Press, for rear cam.

It is a latching, soft press switch, to reduce signal spike.
