    A cover for the screen
    An infrared reversing camera
    The camera is linked to the electrics of the reversing system so that as reverse gear is sellected the camera is activated. The resulting image is displayed on an AV imput on the touchscreen, as illustrated below.

    I have a friend who is a pattern maker. He does point of sale plastic mouldings, the type you see in the shops holding cosmetics etc.
    He made the perfect screen moulding after about three attempts, and then made a cover that is slightly bigger than the screen moulding. It fits over like a glove, add a ford tranny badge and there you have it

    My baadddd.

    And I retract this statement: "Pretty sweet and basic install. I like it." This is an awesome install. Looks basically like aftermarket add-ons. I like much more now.

    C'mon Stevie. Your'e the one who inspired me to do all this.
    We've emailed loads of times & I've picked your brains on my install.
    So if It looks good, it's in part to you.
    Are you using Road Runner ? I've change over from Mediacar since I took the pics.
