i looked for info on this, but couldn't find any.  i have a  $12,000+ car stereo in my '05 extended cab gmc sierra (no room for 4-lol), and i have don all of the installation myself (8 boston g-5 subs, 4-ppi pcx amps, 4 optimas, dual alternators, etc, etc;  so i know more than a little bit about car audio).  anyways, i have two visor screens that i use with my back up camera.  this is the second camera that has gone bad due to moisture in two years, always just out of warranty.  i do have an eclipse camera, i think it is model: bec 106.  i would like to be able to use this on my stand alone screens.  it looks like it is a really nice camera and msrp is over $200.  but it has a rectangular plug on it, with four wires coming out-i am assuming power, ground, and two video feed.  wire colors are: white(20gauge), red, black, and yellow(all 24gauge or smaller) 

question is:  does anyone know what the order of these wires are, or how i could go about finding out?  i would like to cut the plug and hard wire to my screens.  but i am not about to ruin this item with an uneducated attempt.     any help would be greatly appreciated, or, if it is wiser to not attempt, just let me know.

I'm not 100% on this, but i think the Eclipse camera is only 6 volts and will only work with the Eclipse head units. It is a quality camera tho. We've been using Hitchcams license plate cam, very good quality and no moisture problems...

you can only use the eclipse cam with the eclipse deck. if you cut the plug, you will void the warranty.
