There is an easier way, I will document when I do my cruiser conversion with stock reverse camera installed.... I should be doing this in the next few weeks hopefully.
What GPS are people running?

My GPS is the wife! Comes with overspeed alerts, driving tips, faultless navigation (if we get lost it's not her fault!) and a familiar voice!
I'm using the Garmin Nuvi 1450T, this one allows for map updates using topographic maps from Garmin and has free map updates for life.
The unit has clear voice direction and even says the names of the streets to turn into.
As an added bonus you can have your wife record her voice and will give ou instructions of where to go even while she isn't there.

I was going to cut and paste and email to the missus....til I read the last two lines. I thought she may get offended at that.
