Video In Motion - Cheaper Unit?

What's the difference between this:

and

http://www.nav.tv/show_products.asp?product_id=181

Other than price?

The gnet module interrupts the image from the satnav feed to the front monitor and replaces it with its own input, to which you can connect pretty much any portable device that comes with an A/V out, including a backup camera if you want. It's basically a simple split of the same input from the satnav to the front monitor (I think you actually need to splice some wires.) The Nav-TV solution is more integrated, enabling the existing video feed from the RSE system to keep playing on the front monitor while the car is in motion (only if you have RSE, of course) and also enabling the "dormant" (at least in North America) TV input in our cars' infotainment software to obtain an additional input for other portable devices.

Didn't have it on the Vogue I did the LRE in a couple of weeks ago... the instructor (in his sales spiel) said "you can get it fitted".... but not sure. I'll check on the features list...

I installed one of these Gnet video in motion units in my RRS last night. So far it's worked perfectly. It only took me about 3 hours to fit and only had to splice a few wires. I fitted the box under the passenger seat easily enough. I had to splice into a 12v source in the centre console and into the aux aucio connector in the back of the car. I fitted the source select button and the IR diode in one of the cupholders in the centre console where I already have an Origin B2 speed camera detector device fitted. It's all very slick and works perfectly with my iPhone as the video input source.

I plan on fitting a reverse camera in due course but I need to work out the wiring run and find the right camera first.

I might also integrate freeview and a rear fold down screen at some stage too.

Took a while for the Gnet box to arrive and I would check availability before you order, but overall it went very well and so far works perfectly.

Nice work, R33 Thumbs Up

While this is all beyond my auto-electrical skills Wink I think a lot of us would benefit from understanding more how you did this? I don't suppose you could put together a more detailed description of how to do it?

Yes when I get a chance I will put some more words behind it and some pics. I meant to take install pics last night but I got too carried away with the install Laughing

They are showing as 'in stock' at the moment for a change. If anyone wants a demo I will be at the London meet on the 16th, will post some pics when I get round to it sorry!
