I've been out of the loop on this subject, Blair. When you installed
the color camera, did you also install a small color monitor or did you
feed it direct to your color TV up front? Were you able to reuse the
existing cabling or did you have to run new cable? Finally, how much
did you have to lay out on the project?

Thanks for the update.
