Finally all working.
 Cables/looms all fixed, grafted and extended. Interface box mounted high above pedals in the bowels of the dash. Video-in-motion button replaces the blank to the right of the steering wheel. I used the latching switch body from a PF flasher and the top/cover from a PF rear blind switch - looks appropriate for the function.  Both bought from our sponsors IIRC. Already planning what to do next as I haven't yet 100% sorted out the video cable run from camera to dash; may look at a wireless solution as used by "awolfinsheepsclothes". They are pretty cheap (£8!) and with the ski hatch the signal should get through OK. Now this is done I'll reinstall my XCarlink as I took it out to ease access behinds the RNS-D. Then I'm hoping to have a second use for the video interface - DVB-T; I gave up on that ages ago but now have a better solution in mind.

Added Auto-dim mirror, Leather seats, Trip computer, Cruise control, OEM Ford SatNav with CD changer. And before that a lot of Rover 800s, a few oddities, a lovely Triumph Dolomite 1850HL with Overdrive and way back in my schooldays an Austin Seven aka Mini 850!

 Celebrated with a seriously loud blast of "Comfortably Numb" from the SD card, Back on topic though..... Quote:
If not I'll just stick with the reversing lamp circuit, but am wary of overloading it. Though as I now have LED's that's probably less of a risk.
