5.0 out of 5 stars Worth it for a variety of reasons, January 30, 2011

First of all, don't buy this unit with the intention of allowing the viewing of DVDs while you are driving. This is illegal and insane (and I'm not just saying that as a legal disclaimer; moving video in the front seat is inevitably going to pull the driver's eyes from the road) so I'm not endorsing that.

That said, I highly recommend this product to make your life easier when installing a new stereo. My Alpine INA-W900BT is a great head unit, but when it comes to hooking up the foot and hand brake wiring, it is a bit of a pain. I am no car stereo guru by any stretch but drilling a hole in my firewall to route a brake detection wire? NO THANK YOU.

Not a whole lot else to say; this item simply does what it is supposed to do. Your head unit will think that the brake is always on, letting you access any functions you need to. In my case, I will be picking up another one for my other car as it is really annoying that my wife can't program the GPS while I am driving. Until the car manufacturers start adding some sort of passenger-detection override, items like this will be sorely necessary.

Very easy to install and use. I used it for alpine video bypass for my, uhhh, "boat or RV". Comes preset to use for this function so all you have to do is hook up the wires. The only reason it's not a 5 star is that the video resets every time I restart my vehicle. That could be the head unit though.

I used this to bypass the foot brake and parking brake signals for an Alpine INA-W900BT. Without this device, the only way to access the main setup menu is to set the parking brake, press down the foot brake and while holding the brake pedal down, release the parking brake and set it again, then release the foot brake. Seriously? That's insane. Wire this thingy in and you can access the setup menu any time. Perfect!
