Quick question about Midcity VIM

hey guys
Just wondering, for the Midcity VIM that comes with Aux Video, can I connect both the rear vew camera and also the aux vid at the same thing?

Thank you

no, I bought the vim204P which gives you only one video input which I used for my iPod video input and then output that to my rear screens......... They only way to get aux vid and rear camera is to send in your unit to mid city and they will "hardwire" custom inputs and then ship it back.....

oh thanks for your reply
was about to pick one up
so that means its either one or the other is that correct because the video aux in is used by the camera already?

yup, I had to disconnect the camera feed wire to attach my iPod video wire, BUT i have parking sensors so didn't need the camera feed........and, videos while driving is more important then reverse camera anyways right? haha

you could always get one of these for like $10 and hide it somewhere and switch between camera and aux......

ya but does the built in video out have audio out too?

I have the aux used for backup cam currently, but forgot about if there were audio jacks back there or not?
