I went shopping, took a friends daughter to look at car stereos, it's not safe for me to do these things.
I saw (not the same but close) this thing above, and oooooooooooh I want one.
A usable screen size for my reverse camera, all the same stuff as I have, but better, I might be able to actually see the track title on the screen, oh well I'm going to have to put it on the list. :on2long:

Hey Roger.

You're right. I want one also.

Can the camera input be recorded ? Reason I ask is that I took a half hour video of my green Esprit with a video camera mounted on the rear of my red Esprit. So had the sound track of my exhaust but the video of the green one.

Will it extend correctly in the Esprit? I'd have thought it would hit the gearstick, that's what has put me off those sort before.

Camera input : My current set up only powers the camera when the car is in reverse, and there is no means to record it.
For filming I'm going to get a GoPro,

Comes highly recommended by Travis.

Esprit dash : yes the screen comes out horizontally, should clear the stick then raises upward.

I have a Kenwood ...it is installed in my Land Rover. wanted to install it in the Esprit...however it would clear the gear lever but would not clear the binnacle in the S4
