The neutral thing happens the way I described before. You go into cargo cam feature then cab press the back button to cycle through the cams

@ RLK,
I believe if you email CustomTronix that they will gladly clarify what is happening with their software.
Although I have gotten the impression that they can come across as a bit arrogant back when jeepguy1980 was trying out their software. Possibly just a lost in translation issue. (The name Magnus comes to mind).

Yeh , I watched a couple videos this morning by a guy Named Magnus , he's the voice in the Custom Tronix video that you posted above .
Maybe a bit arrogant , maybe just his demenor from Sweden? He probably gets a ton of simple or stupid questions.
Either way I am gonna send them an email with some questions ( hopefully intelligent Qs ) LOL !

I've all but 100% verified through watching videos that the 8.4" screen does go Blue at speeds above 7-10 mph .

Thanks for your involvement here Mpgrimm2!
It looks like they offer package deals with front and or cargo light assy cams with the RCA jack harness .
I'm still not clear yet on how the movies play , unless it's all via blutooth ?
There is a video & audio RCA , I'm just not clear on what I would hook up to them ... maybe a DVD player ?

All factory. I was running about 65mph



Wow , so tell me Sir How do you like your Custom Tronix?
I'm assuming that's what you have .

Have you had any problems with it & how is customer service ?
Have you had to update the software , if so do you do it via the USB port?

And finally did you upgrade to your 8.4" radio or was it factory ?

Thanks for any response .

The video on the RAX requires additional equipment. You could use a mirror be, Apple TV, DVD player etc. The RAX provided adapter harness has one audio in and two video in. In order to use the video you need an ab switch hooked into the cargo cam line in so you could hook up a third device. To use it you would turn on the cargo cam and switch the ab to you video source. All video control would be done through the video source. Or if you are not installing cargo cam just hook up without an switch. Very hokey, the lock pick has the same ability but it has built in mirror cast ability making it pnp, though quirky.

I took this photo today at 45mph with the cargo cam while making sure I didn't loose the bobcat. Lol
