About the Metra CHRYSAV

If you're replacing the radio in your Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, or Ram vehicle, you'll lose your rear seat entertainment system (RSE) capabilities. That's where the CHRYSAV cable comes in. It connects the factory video screen, your rear seat controls, and the factory backup camera to your new car stereo.

This adapter is a perfect fit to integrate the factory backup camera in my 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited with Navigation with my Boss BE950WCPA head unit. The cables are clearly labeled to prevent any issues with what cable connects to what port.
