Number plate light style reversing camera
« on: Yesterday at 06:25:25 pm »
Looking for some advice from those who may have done this already.  Just fitted an RCD330 to my ED30, and also wanted to add a reversing camera.  I've got a number plate light style camera but I'm trying to figure out the best way to get power to it.  The instructions were pretty much useless, but after much research I think I have 2 options:

1: Take power from the reversing light.
2: Take power from a "reversing trigger" at the head unit end using the red cable attached to the Yellow phono-style video connector.  Problem is none of the cables are labelled and I can't work out what I should connect into to get power so that the camera turns on when I select reverse.

Any guidance appreciated!
