In a former post https://forums.swedespeed.com/showthread.php?627729-Rear-camera-through-RTI-screen&p=7655713&fbclid=IwAR0ZNSvD5b0b3WN8Q5IsMOawfpWOlNka9IQLr3x7ILXvtgg0TS_P-xvH9eo#post7655713 I explained that I had installed a NAVIKS Video Interface in my volvo C70, linked to a rear camera.
However the NAVIKS has also an HDMI Interface.
So I connected my Mobile to the NAVIKS with an USB-C --> HDMI cable,
and it works:

Sound is transmitted through a Wireless Audio Adapter (Hagibis) and commands are issued through Google Assistant/Voice

Rear camera works like a charm when the car is in R

The only small issue is that whenever I start the car again, I have to push a button to reset the NAVIKS module to the HDMI input, instead of the standard RTI image of the C70.
That button is provided by NAVIKS with a 2 m cable and allows to switch between the 3 inputs (RTI, HDMI and VIDEO 2)

Hope this can be useful to some

Next step would be to create a wireless connection with the NAVIKS instead of a wired one. Must be easy, and NAVIKS sells a Wireless module thta I haven't tested

Same on the Volvotech - just leave the Navi on all the time. The rear camera works even if you don't click through the "legal warning" screen when you start the car. I've gotten used to clicking through every time I start the car.
