Default Backup camera

i just bought a backup camera, like the ones u find at autozone, oreillys, advanced,etc. the thing is the monitor is wireless, it receives the video from a antenna connected to the camera, since its wireless obviously it doesnt have an output or input connection..my question is, is there any way to get an output from the monitor so i can connect it to another monitor instead? i would like to wire the output to an rca so i can hook it up to my radio..

there is adapters that convert the signal 2.4ghz to a wire, but... you loss quality in that process and get a lot of interference because everybody uses 2.4ghz... wireless phones in the houses, spy cameras, wifi networks... a rear camera is around $10 in ebay with long cable and stuff


now if dont mind catch any surprise image while driving in the blocks or some interference, you can get the wireless receiver for around $25:

where can i get the wireless reciever?? another thing i was thinking on just taking a look at the wires that go from the camera to the wireless antenna see if i can get an rca from there. if not i guess i'll just change the camera to one with the wires. i got this one for thirty bucks ,camera and monitor. but then i tought it would be nice to see it on my double din instead.
