Liam have you fitted the reversing camera ? if so whats it like to do and what it like to fit the unit just a straight swap ?

[STEADS]

minty put a reverse camera on mine easy enougth to do if your replacing the number plate light use the live and earth off that for the light its self then the power for the actual camera i used the boot lock connection only live when hatch is closed then run the lead through the rubber into the headling along the nearside use a old metal coat hanger to feed it to the edge of the rear door then just drop the door seals and run it along down the a pillar and under the glove box .most of these replacement units seem to be just plug and play and the camera is well worth fitting imo as it saves you hitting the bollards in asda car parks lol .

it sounds really easy when you read it quickly lol !!!
theres a few things i would really love to do or should i say get done but they strike fear in me

[liam-20]

The reverse camera is really easy hardest part is getting the video cable through the rubber conduet. It's well worth it though.


I park up against the wall of my house so this really helps me get it close.

A few questions...

Does the aux port in the glovebox still work with this?

Does the voice control still work? Ie, hitting the Voice button and commanding stuff?

Liam, I have installed this, will put some pics up later. Quick question, the unit button light red when I power it on, but only stay on for a few secs, they also don't come on when car headlights come on I would have expected this. Think I've fitted all the cables and canbus is connected also. also do your bluetooth contacts transfer and sort alphabetically? Cheers

[vince_13]

that the same model im looking at buying, along with the reverse camera, i did notice on the picture of the rear of the unit it doesn't have any pre-outs (unless the cable is not in the pic)

also i have found a wireless revers camera (transmitter in the boot and receiver under the dash) and it cheaper

[liam-20]

Hey Vince there is a seperate loom that has all the sub out pre out and aux etc this then plugs into back of the unit.
