A Couple Dom's Unit Install Questions
So i'm going to install my dom's unit this weekend and I have a few questions that I couldn't find answered on here. I drive a 07 TL-S for reference:
1. Do we have a video cable for our stock back up camera? Is it plugged into the back of the GPS DVD rom because I didn't see it there. I know this cable needs to go into dom's unit.
2. I bought another switch at radio shack because i don't like the look of the one that came with the unit that switches it from nav to video. It says its rated as 10A at 125VAC or 6A at 250VAC. Can i still use this in the car or do I need to find a DC switch.
3. The power cord supplied has a red and black wire coming out of it. The red goes to the power source (cig lighter) and the black is ground correct?
Forgive my newbish questions. To make up for it I plan on making a step by step DIY
Thanks!

3. Correct
FYI be sure to place it in an area securely so it doesn't fall off and rattle later on. As well run all of the cables for video while you have it apart so if you decide to hook up something else later on, you don't have to rip apart the whole car.
