New Project Done! VSM, iLink and Back up cam Installed!

Hello,

Added new mods this & past week,
VSM and iLink from EAS,
Thank you so much Tom and Steve from EAS, I couldn't even finish this without your helps!!! you guys ROCK!!!
also added back up cam from this GB, I was lucky enough to get the last stock they had left.

ok, here it goes,
got the first aid kit from LeatherZ
Thank you statdoc!!


iLink and iPod fit in first aid kit perfectly,


here is inside view - iLink, iPod and all the wires are hidden.


Video Source Module from EAS, it works as TV module, so no need to add oem TV module to make it work with back up cam or others.
Also, it has TWO video inputs.


this is where I mounted my back up cam,
Thank you ncx for great article and tips!


Souce selector switch, I needed to add this switch for iLink,
back up cam has trigger itself which is a back up light,
but iLink & iPod doesn't have any tirggers, so I need to turn on that switch when I need play video or/and etc
remote control and remote eye for iLink.


Stock nav screen switches to Back up cam screen once I put reverse, then it gose back to stock screen


iLink uses stock AUX mode, it's just simple plug and play wire behind the stock Nav screen.


once I turn on that source selecor switch on,
I see these menus, you can play mp3, picture slide show, video and etc.


select Video, then you will see this screen,
iPod is working as a "Hard Drive" no need to do file convert job or other things.
iLink will play Music files (MP3 and WMA), Photos (Jpg, Bmp and Gif) and Videos (MPEG 1/2/4, DivX and Xvid)
I bought iPod photo 60GB from craigslist for $120 to use it as a hard drive.


iLink Plays Video (mpeg file) through stock Nav screen.
Great picture quality and sounds!!
and control them all by one small remote control.


I put first aid kit under the driver's seat, (ooops I need to close it again)
all wires are hidden, you just need to open it when you need to take the iPod out.


I'm still using ice>link Plus, I know iLink can still play the MP3, but I just wanted to keep OEM wheel controls, since I could make these all work together.

I'm really happy with these mods, and now I can make my buddies just shut up while I drive
Once Again, Thank You guys all who helped me out to finish this mod!!
