I just need to know whether I need to do the VSS switch or not to see if I can see AUX. The car will be going very slow (ie parking speed).

I'm pretty sure that the guidelines are built into the camera module itself, so you probably won't be able to turn them off without replacing the camera. Don't think that the VSS signal has much to do with kicking the HU into "Camera Mode", just the 12v reverse-signal wire that provides signal to the HU when you're in reverse. Most of this is just speculation from what I've learned about the HU on the FRS, but what I imagine you'll need to do is:
1.) Replace rear camera with a different camera module (if you're wanting to disable the gridlines when in reverse).
2a.) Install a front camera wherever you want it.
2b.) Run RCA wires to back of HU area.
3.) Use 2x DPDT relays with a toggle to switch inputs from front or rear camera on demand (I have a diagram how to do that on my other thread).
4.) Use one more DPDT relay with toggle to switch to keep it throwing the HU into "reverse-mode" when thrown into reverse automatically, or to kick it into camera mode on demand.
All you'll need to do is identify the RCA input wires and the 12v reverse signal wire on the back of the HU.
