Done all that plus digital TV. Though I don't have a TV tuner so have an extra interface box for the camera (CVBS to RGB made by T-era but NLA). All sits happily alongside a full Xcarlink.
Summary is in the final post (#90) in a rather long meandering thread: http://forum.a8parts.co.uk/showpost....3&postcount=90
With a TV tuner it would be slightly simpler to install I think.
