The cameras just plug in. The monitor shows 4 screens, one of course is blank cause there are only three cameras. When a turn signal is used or put in reverse, the screen goes full screen to that camera. You can configure to three screens but I didn't like the layout.
It is convenient and faces the driver. When preparing to turn in heavy traffic it is intuitive to check the screen you want as they are layed out as they look. if all is clear you then turn on the turn signal and get full screen.
The only thing that is flaky is the monitor seems to refresh itself every couple of minutes. Haven't figured out why, but will mess with it in warmer weather. I got the monitor from Rear View Safety.
Be prepared the documentation is almost worthless.

I assume you had to buy either a new switch box or conversion cables to go from RCA at the new monitor to the aviation/cannon connectors from the cameras. Do you know what you used and maybe a part number? The switch box that is in there now looks to only display one camera at a time so I assume that needs to be replaced?
