    I'm looking at getting the new Pioneer AVIC X920BT receiver as I hear the toyota nav is garbage.

    I don't care for the camera image in my rear view mirror, and would like to instead see it on the new head unit. Am i going to have the proper connections behind the stock unit to make this happen?

    Yes, it has an input for a rear-view camera, but I do not know if you will be able to use your existing rear view camera with it.

    I know the head unit has an input for the camera, but i was wondering if the wire is actually back there since right now its displayed way up in the rear view mirror. i was just wondering if it would be plug and play or if I have to splice the connection in the mirror down to the head unit area.

    You *should* have a composite video cable someplace - but will have to locate it (follow the wires?).

    Read the threads - you have JBL, and will likely need a thing from PAc called the PAC-TATO ($70). You will also need the PAC-SWI PS ($40), and possibly PAC WRI ($40 + $25 remote - if you want to add a wireless remote - see that thread here later)...

    With all that, there's no reason it would not work... You may consider the Z110 for it's larger display - but that's preference.
