    hello

    i got a 2005 prius with the nav on it with the 6 cd changer inside the middle dash

    now i want to put on a backup camera and maybe a audio input!

    i tryed to look in PC search and there is a lot.. info..
    but i want to plug in a composite video feed and a aux line in!

    and not use a aftermarket device but make it with some electronics .. maybe a composite to RGB+H etc?

    You need a video controller.

    That'll allow you to plug in a camera, dvd player and so forth.

    You can remove the MFD and check. If there is a way to directly plug one in, that would be awesome. But as far as I know, a video controller is the only option.
