I got the pioneer AVH-X8500BHS I want to play the DVD while car is in motion. I search online for this kind of installation but all I get is the relay with the ground connection which is 86 and 87 ground, 30 to green wire from HU, 85 to the remote turn on. This head unit requires that I connect the green wire to the brakes positive wire instead of ground. My question is how do I do it to get a positive connection with the relay to make the DVD play while car is in motion

For legal reasons we can not help you with that. All parking brakes are negative in polarity. The green wire is definitely looking for ground. If the 8500 is the same as the 8400, it is looking for a brief pulse then open then ground again.
