The camera is from CarVision, model CV-130WDR NH The wire i fed via the same route as the cables for the lamps on the boot lid are routed. Please see photos attached (the camera is covered by plastic shield)

Hello everybody, I got the same interface by Carvision, but it is different because there is no can-bus box. So, to switch to rear view, there is a wire that I have to connect to the +12v of the back lights. I would like to avoid to pass a wire until the rear... Do you know where I can connect it ? (Fuse box, any connector, ...) Thanks |

(Fuse box, any connector, ...) Hello, You can reach the back light signal from the rear fuse box: BSC1 (located in the trunk, near battery) Unfortunately the signal for the reversing lights comes from BSI to BSC1 through CAN-bus. Thus in the front of the car (e.g. in the BSI) there is no place to connect without the CAN-box. |

Just the camera unit itself so how would you integrate it into the cars display? Do you have the rest of the 'kit'? I have personally had rear view cameras installed before on various cars (VW, Mercedes) which all require additional software installation of which there is no mention of and given the price quoted, is not included. m3mpower wrote ... You will need the camera obviously, the interface, and some cables, wiring. ...... The interface only works with RT4/5, NG4 and RNEG. If i remember correctly it costs over 300€ for the interface alone. Indeed the last installation I looked at was for an Audi and it failed because the software that was supposedly compatible, wasn't. It was a 'professional' fit so as it failed, didn't cost anything BTW

Well you would plug it into the AV connection in the glove compartment. But indeed, how would it know that you are in reverse? | ||
