mirror iPhone on aftermarket HU

so i figured out how to mirror everything on my iPhone on to my aftermarket Head Unit. I don't know if anyone has done this, if so sorry for the re-post. Anyways everything i do on my iPhone 5 shows up on my screen. I did this mostly to get videos from my phone on to my stereo.Name:  20130301_204305.jpg

Awesome, man! That's a sweet deal--I'll have to try it whenever I get a new truck with AV in...

looks cool, could you post up what you used.
Im assuming this would work on any phone with an HDMI output and any headunit with an AV input?

i used an HDMI to RCA Adapter. You have to use the adapter because you are going from an analog to a digital signal(or other way around) $30 on amazon
RCA to RCA $5
Apple HDMI to Lightning adapter $30
hdmi cable $8

as far as i know it should work with any phone that is Hdmi capable.
