Yes, you can tap the wire near the reverse bulbs. That signal should also go into the dash, but I don't know where you can find it.

ACC-signal (1st turn of ignition key)
+12V ACC is on your 7-pin radio harness. See the link in my previous post (where I say "Pin-out is here").

Parking brake (allowing TV and DVD-playing)
You should be able to find that signal on the parking brake switch (on the hand brake lever).

Quote:
Is the rear window a good place for the TV-antenna?
Possibly. It depends on the antenna (size, shape, etc.).

Quote:
I plan to power the reverse camera at the reverse light, will that be OK?
Yes, that's OK to supply power to the camera itself.

I don't know yet, but I hope powering up the camera will switch the unit to rear vision - otherwise I need the reverse signal.
The HU also will have a wire you need to connect to the reverse gear signal. This tells the HU to display the camera image.
