I replaced my old screen with a like sized LCD 4 channel monitor that i rigged to take power from the old javelina.
 Removed the old AV inputs from javelina and plugged into new unit.  Both tanks and back up can work.
 Cost was dirty cheap and I got from Amazon.
 I'm sure others here can give you model numbers, and i can post a pic if you want.

Sorry, i don't have the model number. Tossed the box long ago and no info on the product.  I did get it from Amazon.
It has four inputs, so in theory you could view
Tanks
Rear cam
Left & right side cams if you added them.
Show all or one.
Heres a pic of how it looks fired up.

I got an Android 10 Head unit with a motorized screen
Has Video inputs an I took the output from the AUDIT Sys with a BNC to RCA cable.
Setup allowed me to invert the video. Color screen makes for less contrast, but it works fine.

When we purchased our coach in March it had a monitor but no Audit system.  We removed the monitor, it was stuck on with VHB tape.  There is no power cord, but you could easily find a supply for it.  If someone needs it we would be more than happy to drop it in the mail to you.

Here are some shots of the Android 10 head unit. Original camera, Audit works OK. All sensors read
Have not removed the CRT  yet.

I used to plug my phone into the stereo unit.
Great to listen to music and GPS directions.
 My new phone only can connect via bluetooth as it has no headphone jack.
 Does that unit have Bluetooth?
 Mind sharing the cost?

 Does anybody know of a bluetooth adapter that accepts a headphone jack?

Phonak makes a bluetooth adaptor for my hearing aids which might work for what you
want as my hearing aids will pair up with a phone but as they are for hearing aids they
are expensive.

it does have BT and the cost is $199. I got the one WITHOUT a DVD player
see the link above.
There are many BT adapters that let you get sound thru your stereo. they cost from a little to a lot. The problem is having your GPS talk thru, interrupting the  ongoing sound. It can be done , but it is cumbersome.

Yes.
 I'm SURE DW will allow me the watching of movies while I'm driving......UNLESS you tell her you said i could?
 Since i already have the LCD monitor, think I'll just go with a single DIN radio with BT.

Look at 2-in-1 Bluetooth Audio Transmitter Receiver | Avantree TC417 (https://avantree.com/tc417-bluetooth-transmitter-receiver)  $40.
I use  one to connect to TV via optical fiber (TOSLINK) - also takes 3.5mm
This lets me mute the speakers per DW and still listen to  TV.
