I need to give it a break since it's getting late but I got the box working.
-Can't test the audio quality yet, but honestly for me right off the bat it sounds fine. I have not tried playing with my little amp, don't want to wake the family up but will try tomorrow.
-Can't get the backup camera working. Wired it as per the spec but I don't seem to be getting 12V out from the unit. But again need to try this with the car running and don't want to gas myself in the garage late at night.

Hopefully can get the camera working early tomorrow then put everything back together.
