I have an 06 ford explorer with the ford navigation which is a Pioneer avic-DXxxxx (small x's are number I can't remember right now) I'd like to install a backup camera into this unit but I have seen nothing yet on the internet that even approaches this. Does anyone here have any information on how I would go about doing this? I pulled the unit this week. It's makes no provision for video in, but does have a ribbon cable that goes from the main PC Board to the screen, although the front screen is motorized to allow insertion of the NAV DVD. The other thing is the 6 disk CD changer is stacked on top of the unit, but can be removed by removing a whole bunch of screws and 2 ribbon cables. My thinking is that I would intercept the video in the ribbon cable using a custom ribbon cable like those available for GMC factory Nav's.

Does anyone have any insight into this?
