Nope. There is no video input.

I replaced the stock nav unit with a Kenwood DNX 772, as it has a better nav (Garmin) and accepts backup camera. I am going to be replacing the DNX 772 with another unit this weekend and I will post the DNX772 on here for sale.

I knew about that but it requires, or would have required, taking the nav apart to install it. Not really plug and play. And I doubt the video quality would have been acceptable since the resolution is so low on the OEM nav screen. I don't know the status of it if it's going to be available or not.

Hook up RV cam to a stock OEM nav system?
No.

Hook up RV cam to an internally modified OEM nav system?
Yes, but it is not cheap, nor is it plug and play.
Expect to pay at least $200 for the mod, *plus* the cost of the camera, wiring, labor, etc.

Anything CAN be done -- all it takes is money!
