Default Backup/Rear Camera Split Screen on Dash Cam and Android Head Unit

Dear All,

I have Android Head Unit installed on my RX300 and I have existing Dash Camera. Now I want to connect Backup/Rear Camera on these Android Head Unit and Dash Camera. Because I dont want to install a new rear Camera (two rear camera on my rear trunk) it is so messy. So when I reverse the Car, it show up both Android Head Unit and Dash Camera Screen with one rear camera only. I think that wire a new RCA cable and connect to Android Head Unit it will work. I did not test it yet. Could you recommend or any idea about this connection. Thanks!

I have both but depends what you think you will use. You still need to get the power and cables to ceiling and to rear for the mirror but buy a 12''.
12 Inch Car DVR Mirror Video Recorder 1080P Touch Screen Dashcam Dual Lens Streaming Driving Recorder Dash Camera car cam - AliExpress
The android versions cost 2 x price.
The center console androids also control the aircon and cost 5 to 10 x times the price depending on size and features.
6G 128G Car Radio For Lexus RX300 1997-2003 Toyota Harrier 1998 Android 10 Multimedia Video GPS Navigation No 2 Din DVD Player - AliExpress
Still have to wire in rear cameras.

If you have the mirror eg 12" you are better off not pointing it to the ground for parking but as a rear camera to see more that what you would from cabin alone. Features you want parking / full screen rear with split screen option/ G sensor accident prevention / front + rear cameras.

The android is better off for parking use camera pointed to see the cars angles and what you can't see from cabin.
Features you want parking / aircon / rear camera / video in / video out (which is USB cable to rca /hdmi) / accident prevention / front + rear cameras.
