Thanks this is just what i needed! but what do you mean 'earlier' cable?

can ANYONE confirm that the dockstubz converter from cablejive WILL work to charge the newer ipods/iphones? i have an iPhone 4 and im in need of something like this if it indeed does work properly. thanks!

that didnt do anything. but i got it working. the wrx has 2 reverse light wires, and i decided to tap into the one i didnt try, even though i was sure it wouldnt make a difference...it worked. now when i put the car into reverse, it automatically switches to the rear camera view. and because i tapped into the accessory as well, i can view the rear view through the navi even when im not in reverse. thanks for all ur help!!

so i ran a wire from the accessory to the power of the backup camera, and as expected, nothing changed except that i can view the backup camera from the navi at any time even if its not in reverse. but my problem remains: it doesn't switch automatically to the backup camera when i put my car into reverse. sometimes it even randomly views the camera. i think it has something to do with the reverse wire from the harness to the reverse wire in the car, but i dont know what the problem could be because i made solid connections. please help thanks

yeah i already did that. i took the reverse wire from the d3(purple/white) and connected that to the reverse light in the wrx (brown/yellow)

ok. well after tapping into accessory rather than reverse, will that allow it to automatically show the rear camera whenever i put it into reverse? is there some kind of setting for this? and should polarity be on battery or ground? Thanks!

yeah i know but the cable isnt long enough to go back to the unit. would there be one in the trunk somewhere? or would it only be that red wire in the back of the dash

should that fix the problem? then i need to find the ACC wire in the trunk of my wrx...

I recently installed the Boyo VTL422C backup camera to an Avic D3 in my 07 WRX. There are 3 cables to be connected: the rca input, the ground, and the power. I connected the rca input to the output cable on the d3 harness, i grounded the camera, and connected the power by tapping into the reverse light wire. I turned the camera ON through the AV menu, and there are 2 options for polarity: battery and ground. The problem is that the camera doesn't automatically turn on whenIi switch into reverse, though I can use it by switching to rear view in the Nav menu. I've tried both ground and battery o

well i still dont have an answer to my question. if you do please let me know.

i have read them and they suggest this works but do not confirm it. thanks for all ur helpful input.

I have an iphone 4 and ive been reading about the passthrough devices that will charge it with the cd 1200 cable. can someone confirm that the dockstubz cablejive cable DOES work to charge the newer ipods and iphones? http://www.cablejive.com/products/dockStubz.html or any other cables that will or will not work, id like to know. thanks!
