Does this headrest unit have AV output? if so then you can hook it up with interface kit and will be able to watch the video on OEM screen also,
But how does this headrest monitor provide audios? via headphones or stock speakers?

EDITED: It seems like invision headrest unit uses FM modulator for audio and have video output,
So then yes, you can still hook it up with interface kit for VIDEO but you still need to play sounds through FM modulator

Vlad, I won't offer front camera in next week, I'd like to have it on for couple weeks and if I don't have any problem, then I'll be selling it.

Awesome!!! How much for the kit with both front and rear cameras? Also, if I have both front and rear cameras will I still be able to add an external video source such as DVD player?

can i hook this up with your unit? this has an aux source so if anyone is thinking of adding an aux output this might be a cheaper way to go if this is compatible, $99.99 shipped
