Hi Amancuso. You don't need the amplifiers or the antenna.

I installed antenna but that's because I bought an aftermarket hdtv tuner that installs into the OEM tv tuner and it came with an antenna feed.

You do need an adapter cable that connects between the nav dvd and the tv tuner.

Also you need to splice into the reverse light or the PDC, which is a pretty clever idea since you can manually turn on the camera by switching on the pdc.

My camera failed a few months ago, not sure why, could be one of the wires I connected broke off. Now whenever it's in reverse the oem screen just turns from blue to orange. LOL

Good luck with your install. It's pretty cool once it works.
