Brian,  Contact RV Cams in Baton Rouge, LA.  They have all the hardware and know how to connect to your coach.  Good folks.

I got mine at Tadi Brothers RV Backup Camera Kits - TadiBrothers

They had what I wanted and price was right.  I used a dual camera in the rear, came with new video and power cables, a right side camera and a 7" monitor.

Some have done OK with wireless, I had one and it was not a stable connection.

New cables run down the side of the coach in the corner extrusion.  I had mine come out in the side of the upper rear overhead cabinet in the BR, down the side wall, through the bottom space and out to the cameras. 

Rear camera mounts externally so you can leave the old camera in place or remove it.  It was not easy to remove.

Side camera is nice, mounts just in front of the door.  Comes on when rt turn signal is on.

TadiBros service and assistance was very good.

The "Javalina Box" is separate from the monitor head mounted in the dash.  It is located on the floor under the bottom of the console storage compartment.

If you do a search, there are several threads on the R&R process.

Brian, I removed the OEM audit display, filled the hole with a cherry panel and mounted the TadiBros 7" display to the panel.  The Audit functions were replaced by a SeeLevel system with displays in the bathroom hall and wet bay. 

The Audit monitor was gray and a slightly darker gray with the rear camera, just worn out. None of the tank levels worked.
