Default Backup Camera Installation

Hello all, I recently bought a backup camera and need your expertise on installation. I search everywhere but couldn't find any helpful info I needed. I have an 04 GS with factory nav and wanted to know what's the bet way to tap the video line into. I found info on the reverse light installations but couldn't find anything on video connections. Any help would greatly appreciated.

search for 'navtool'

I wanted to do this last year, but didn't think it was worth it.

There's not an easy way to tap into the original equipment? Navtool or equivalent is a must to get backup camera work properly?

What this guy said. Search Navtool and you'll find your answers.
