Some observations:

* This unit lacks the ability to watch the backup camera while driving.
* You can plug the backup camera into A/V in, but then you lose the ability to listen to music while watching the camera because the unit expects audio from the RCA inputs.
* In my '19 E350 chassis, the trim ring doesn't fully fill the opening (small gap below the opening)

My wife really likes being able to watch the backup camera.

I'm considering putting the backup camera on the camera input and adding a micro push on/push off switch that makes the head unit think we're in reverse. I'm assuming that the audio doesn't stop when the head unit thinks we're in reverse.... not 100% on that.

Turn on the music and put the vehicle in reverse (with the reverse trigger connected). See what happens.
