Howdy yall,

I'm curious if anyone knows of a nice compact RCA switch that'll run off 12v? After playing around with Beatsonic's backup camera, I got to thinking about what other kinds of things I could do with RCA inputs on the stock HU.

What I'm envisioning is wiring it to where when I put it in reverse, it'll still kick the reverse mode on, but I'd also wire in a switch to apply voltage to the terminal (pin 2 I believe?) on demand (to turn on the "RCA-on mode"), and a switch to change inputs from the backup camera to whatever other RCA input I eventually run (MHL to RCA to display the phone's screen on deck for navigation or whatnot maybe?).

Thoughts?
