Multiple Camera Input - Not Just Front/Rear

Hey Guys

I'm looking to install up to 4 cameras on my truck to be able to toggle thru from the Stock Head Unit.

I see most kits allow for the Front camera. Is anyone familiar with an RCA splitter where you can setup multiple cameras with being able to toggle each camera?

Let me know if you find any videos on how to install. Been wanting to do this myself.

 

That looks pretty solid, I just got the front installed with rear overide but I really want multiple inputs.

Might dabble into this on the next mod bucket list

 

Like this?

As @Shellshock mentioned, we have hardware to do this. I have the non DVR version available for purchase now if interested. The kit comes with the two side view mirror cameras and pop on trim (to replace the OEM ones), and I have options to purchase more cameras, 3 different styles for front mount. It integrates with OEM rear camera if you have it, and if you don't, it's ok, you can add it. 100% plug n play.

6 channel input:
Front Cam - comes on automatically for 10 seconds when shifting to D, great for parallel parking. (Camera Sold separately)
Left Signal - Comes on automatically when signaling light
Right Signal - Comes on automatically when signaling right
Reverse Cam (3rd Party or OEM integrated) - still comes on when shifting into Reverse
Cargo Cam - (can use this channel for anything, like under-body, interior, etc. Camera Sold separately)
Trailer Cam - (can use this channel for anything, as mentioned above, Camera Sold separately)
A/V Input - to mirror any smart phone while vehicle is in motion (if for iPhone, would need to purchase Lightning to HDMI adapter; apple branded not knock off, HDMI to Composite passive Converter Cable, and HDMI Male/Male couple to mate those too, sold separately; all found on Amazon and I can provide you with links if needed. Fairly inexpensive).

All inputs can be manually toggled by the "end call" button on your steering wheel by pressing it for 2 seconds, then tapping it to cycle through the views. Holding the "end call" again for 2 seconds puts you back into Entune. Your smartphone audio won't stop playing even if you're signaling or shifting to Drive/Reverse or even manually toggling through the inputs on your steering wheel if you chose to connect the audio via Bluetooth while video feeds into the system. Many ways once you install it to have fun with it!

Thanks @Shellshock for the mention!

 

Oh...and I'm a CRUX authorized dealer too...forgot to mention that! I can get those kits if you guys want, not listed on our website, but by special order as I don't stock them, so lead time would be about 5 -7 business days to you if in warehouse stock, and for a little less than any authorized online dealer would sell them for, for the most part as I haven't scoured the net for the lowest and really don't care to since I know how low I can go. I think the lowest I've seen them was $470 plus tax around the net. Oh, and do yourself a huge favor, don't buy from eBay. Not authorized to sell in that market place, thus not an authorized dealer...this is not a cheap product in which you should skimp out on support and even more so warranty for a few bucks. The lowest price is still ALOT of $$$.

From us, you're looking at $420 for the CRUX RFM-TYT, shipped free, 1-3 days.

 

Most people are ok with only two inputs. Most only one. Four inputs? Man your ears must be ringing.

 

I started with one, front for parking purposes to see how close I can get...then saw the blind spot cameras that come on when you signal, there's two more...I've got extra inputs, why not an under-body or cargo or trailer while at it? Now if it's ALL plug n play, why not? I think most people are intimidated by thier imagination of how much "work" is entailed but it's really nothing...plus do it once and have it always right?

When the 2020 Tacoma comes out, and it'll have 7 cameras from what I hear (NO DVR like my system) and not sure if it will have quad view, and I KNOW it won't have smart phone mirroring because that's a "saftey issue"...then I can assure you, there'll be more folks that are no longer ok with one or two inputs...buyers remorse is one heck of a feeling and I doubt anyone here will turn in a vehicle (at least from the 18-19 category) to be able to get that feature. It'll cost a lot less to add it...and why not, we've created it for you...Toyota can't even add it even if you wanted to pay them to...plus, again, with quad view, DVR and smart phone mirroring, we've already one up'd the 2020 feature so now it'll be reverse buyer's remorse for them ha!

To each his own but if I told you that you had a choice, 1-2 inputs, or our system, and told you it'll be installed free, and the hardware is all free, which would you chose? The basis behind WHY people might be ok with one or two inputs is either cost, or labor required as a DIY. If those weren't issues, then I think I would disagree with your opinion perhaps, but I do know where you're coming from, because I too said that but when I see something someone has or get an idea for something cool, or one that solves a pain point, I'm diving in. That's puts me on the other side of the fences then a consumer, but when I was on your side of the fence, I FELT THE SAME WAY (but I told myself that to justify not opening up a can of worms from a DIY project that might be beyond me, or so that I don't spend the extra $$$ if I REALLY didn't need it.

Technology and trend setting is my drug of choice...I'm always high on it
