Title: RVC and MDI at the same time?
Post by: danishmkvgti on June 29, 2011, 06:47:52 pm

A friend of mine has the MDI fitted and he states that it uses the same plug as the RVC.
Is it possible to be running both??  :drinking:

Yes it is as I have it on mine, there is what is called a quad lock connector on the back of the unit (see link below)

Plus there is an additional connector for the reverse camera. Hope this helps.  :happy2:

Edit - Beaten to it  :smiley:

All the MDI kits I have seen use the CD changer audio in, can bus and power from the quadlock and not the video in port.

I fitted an RVC and MDI to Moschops car with no problems  :happy2:
