ok i jus installed an Alpine IVA-C800. I was just wondering how can i get it to play videos while driving. I hooked my laptop up to the AUX and it only plays sound. it wont display the video.

 

Pac TR-7 TR7 Alpine Video Bypass. This is going to be your best friend. It a lot cleaner then installing two switches to do it manuely.

how do you do the 2 swtiches. id rather do taht since its cheaper.

 

Trust me get the switcher, its a less headache. 20 bucks on flea-bay or 10 buxs at autozone, spend the extra 10 buxs you will thank me later.

what section would it be in at autozone?

 

If you really want to do the switches I could show you how. But it becomes anoying over time. Because you have to go thru this senerio all the time the car is turned off and on. And for a few extra buxs you won't have to do this.

 

if you could show me how to do the switches that would be awesome. im goin on a long road trip tomorow. so id be temporary till i get back. THANX MAN

 

bump anyone else?

 

pm'ed

 

all you really need is one switch. wire the alpine foot brake wire to the actual foot brake. for the hand/emergency brake, wire it to the switch then then wire the switch to the chassis/ground. basically, step on the car's foot brake and then toggle the switch ON/OFF for three cycles and you should get video when you let go of the foot brake.

 

I use a normally closed push button.

[enough to allow you to set the E brake on the first "click", without the brakes grabbing] that way when you get pulled over you can say " yes sir officer, I do have to set the E brake for the video to work", and it's about as cheap as it gets. 94
